Pratik Bothra is a Principal Machine Learning Engineer based in London with 11 years of experience building reliable, scalable products at the intersection of ML, data platforms, and real-time systems. At Intercom he led the ML and product work for Fin, owning LLM system design, backtesting and the last-mile reliability that turns prototypes into production-quality features. His background spans full-stack and data engineering—he co-led a major Redshift→Snowflake migration, introduced dbt, built scalable storage on DynamoDB/Kinesis, and contributed to the open-source MEAN stack. Pratik combines hands-on prototyping with cross-functional leadership, partnering closely with scientists, product and design to ship grounded, customer-facing ML. He’s equally comfortable diving into authentication flows and backend optimizations as he is architecting LLM-driven agentic systems, reflecting a pragmatic focus on shipping things that actually work in the real world.
