Kishan C is a Senior Applied Scientist at Amazon AGI with a PhD in Computing and Information Sciences from RIT and a decade of experience building production-grade NLP and generative AI systems. He designs novel algorithms for multimodal question answering and information retrieval, translating large-scale experimental results into deployed conversational AI capabilities. His work spans probabilistic ML and deep learning (PyTorch), and he has authored multiple research papers, including three published while at Amazon. Based in Rochester, NY, he brings hands-on engineering experience from early data engineering and ETL roles to advanced research at a leading AI organization. Colleagues rely on him to bridge rigorous academic insight with product-focused delivery and clear communication for diverse stakeholders. An under-the-radar strength is his consistent focus on practical multimodal retrieval techniques that meaningfully improve user-facing dialogue quality.
