About Shubham Kulkarni


Engineer mindset with product execution: solving practical problems through scalable AI and robust software architecture.

I'm Shubham Kulkarni — an AI/ML Engineer building production-grade computer vision systems that process 50,000+ vehicles daily on Indian expressways. Currently at Arya Omnitalk, I architect real-time detection and tracking pipelines using YOLOv8, DeepSORT, and TensorRT on edge devices (Jetson Xavier), achieving 92% mAP at 10ms inference latency.

My engineering DNA bridges hardware and software — from designing PIC microcontrollers for IoT sensor networks to building scalable Django/React web platforms. I won AIR 1 at Smart India Hackathon 2023 and hold internship experience at IBM (NLP/AI) and MathWorks (MATLAB/ML). I specialize in taking AI models from Jupyter notebooks to production — optimizing inference, building data pipelines, and deploying at scale.

I'm passionate about solving complex real-world problems through AI, and I'm actively seeking opportunities at product-based companies where I can build impactful, scalable AI systems.
