Kaustubh Shukla is a senior software engineer specializing in Agent SDKs, backend systems and ML infrastructure, with four years of experience building production-grade AI tooling and IoT platforms. He led development on Agno’s Agents SDK and Workflows 2.0—powering branching, parallel and dynamic orchestration for multi-step AI processes—and contributed key browser automation and API tooling that supported the project’s wide adoption. His background spans end-to-end ML work from finetuning Wave2Vec 2.0 for emotion recognition to deploying vision systems and facial-recognition payment flows for vending networks serving 1000+ machines. Comfortable across backend, DevOps and research settings, he has shipped open-source libraries (agno and Textbase) and production services on GCP, Playwright, FastAPI and MQTT. Based in New Delhi and trained at IIIT Ranchi (B.Tech Hons.), he combines practical systems engineering with research-led improvements—an example being an 8% CCC gain on emotion prediction and a 15% boost in annotated data quality.
