Context-aware email assistance

CRM Pro / Generative AI email assistance

Personalized email suggestions grounded in CRM history and conversations—serving 30% of dealership email volume and driving $6M in attributable annual revenue.

Generative AIKafkaRedis
How it works

Context-aware topic ranking and summaries of calls, emails, and chats build high-signal prompts for personalized, compliance-aligned drafts.

Asynchronous Kafka events, versioned MongoDB context, Redis caching, and I/O profiling support low-latency, zero-downtime generation for 5,000+ emails per day.

The full résumé
JUL 2024 — PRESENT CURRENTTekion CorpApplied Scientist I · Bengaluru

Building production-grade agentic and generative AI for automotive retail.

  • Developed vehicle-domain capabilities within a multi-agent conversational commerce platform, working with LangGraph and tool-based retrieval.
  • Worked on Vehicle Enquiry and Inventory Expert workflows: understanding follow-up questions, finding relevant vehicles, and checking live availability.
  • Built inventory search with structured filters, semantic matching, and controls for pricing, test-drive eligibility, and tool failures.
  • Scaled call intent classification to 10,000+ transcripts daily with Docker, Kafka, and automated backpressure handling.
  • Built AI email assistance powering 5,000+ emails daily and $6M in attributable annual revenue.
  • Established observability and MLOps with OpenTelemetry, MLflow, and Databricks.
