Summary
Piyush Makhija is an AI architect and founder with 9 years of experience building production-grade, agentic AI systems that turn research into durable, revenue-driving products. He’s led multimodal, low-latency tutor and conversational stacks and engineered an agentic data intelligence platform that synthesized $160M+ GMV into real-time profitability insights, driving up to 20% margin improvements. Known for repeatedly re-architecting systems to meet stringent latency and reliability targets, he couples eval-driven development with reliability engineering to move projects from “demo-ware” to scale. His work spans speech, vision, and agent orchestration—delivering sub-1s voice latency and boosting IIT-JEE problem solvability from 20% to 75% at Meraki Labs. Based in Bengaluru, he blends deep technical rigor (MS in ML from Georgia Tech, B.Tech from IIT Roorkee) with founder-level product ownership, currently building negotiation and decision-making agents in stealth. An uncommon strength is his focus on reusable evaluation frameworks and autonomous pipelines that ensure measurable business impact rather than just model accuracy.
