Karan Nakrani

Python developer with 2.5+ years of experience building production backend systems (Django, Django REST Framework, FastAPI) and AI/LLM-driven applications, including prior contract engagements sourced through Turing on AI software-engineering benchmarking and reinforcement-learning simulation projects, delivered in distributed remote teams. Comfortable across the full stack of applied-AI work: REST API and microservice design, PostgreSQL and vector-database-backed retrieval, prompt engineering, local LLM deployment, and LLM output evaluation. Production experience with Docker and AWS for scalable, reliable deployment. Strong communicator, self-directed, and comfortable owning a feature from design through production in a remote-first, English-speaking client environment.
