Driving research project backed by Human Centered Design & Engineering (HCDE) department exploring how to foster user confidence over time in agentic ai platforms. Read up on my ongoing progress on my blog: https://medium.com/@singhkul004

Played an integral role in the product development of a proprietary Multi-Agent AI system, building strategies and roadmaps for the company. Our AI Agent frameworks were made with the power, scalability, security, and consistency to create recurrent value for large enterprises. I had the opportunity to build the direct use cases of these frameworks and drive them to profitability.

Negotiated and secured 2 multi-million dollar debt mandates with international partners, bringing international deal flow. I also spearheaded 2 buy-side M&A mandates, managing a team of junior analysts to conduct extensive due diligence for over 75 targets. My experience in the PE world led me to gain incredible skills and insights for market analysis and stakeholder management.

At AiFi, I got to work on the application of Neural Networks and Computer Vision at scale, bringing autonomous shopping experiences to grocery and convenience stores around the world. As the only intern at the company, I got to work on impactful projects right out of the gate, starting with the deployment of an advanced data analytics tool to upsell existing clients and enable significant amounts of previously unused data in our system.Working with the engineering team, I scoped, designed, and launched the tool, providing retailers the opportunity to predict how and when shoppers will interact with their products. We enabled new paths for revenue for AiFi, but also empowered retailers to visualize SKU data in a way no one had ever done before. We took this tool from ideation to deployment in 6 sprints!In addition to extensive data analysis and enablement, I got to work on scoping and redesigning the shopper experience in AiFi Stadium Stores, Nano-Stores, and Grocery Store product lines. My result, a significant (~15%) decrease on onboarding and store entry times for shoppers in our product line.

Had the amazing opportunity to lead extensive user testing with a new generation of Virtual Reality headsets. My role was to conduct all of the usability testing (usually around 3-4 hour sessions) and utilizing internal client softwares to "crunch the numbers". An amazingly fun deep dive into UX research surrounding VR and Data Analysis.

Developed and deployed a custom, VR native, emotion tracking system to create a virtual experience that responded to the emotions of the user. As the first end-to-end project I developed, I fell in love with the idea of using machine learning to expand the interactions that were possible in technologies like VR. I got to ask the question: How deep can technology be integrated in the human experience with machine learning?

My first exploration of the nuances in AI and NLP on human interactions through web based experiences. Specifically conducted extensive experiments to understand the emotions invoked by an NLP system online.
