AI Engineer

Darshil Kapadia

10 years at IBM India delivering computer vision, NLP, and agentic AI for global enterprises. I design, train, and ship end-to-end AI systems — from custom model fine-tuning to cloud-scale production deployment.

About

I'm an AI Engineer based in India with a decade of experience at IBM, building production AI systems for global enterprise clients — PepsiCo, Bacardi, Dow Chemicals, JSW, FAA, NedBank, Iffco-Tokio, and more. My work covers the full stack: data pipelines, model training and fine-tuning, agentic system design, and cloud deployment on AWS and Azure. I hold an M.Tech from IIT Kharagpur and a B.Tech in Electronics & Communication Engineering.
