Summary
Rahul Sunil is an SDE 2 and GenAI Product Lead with nine years of experience designing and shipping end-to-end LLM systems for enterprise risk, workflow automation, and data-driven products. Based in Thiruvananthapuram, he led DesignAI at Certa.ai—driving architecture, observability, and fine-tuning work that cut workflow creation time by 60%, boosted performance 10x, and helped secure a $35M Series B. He blends backend engineering chops with product ownership, having built multi-tenant SAST tooling, analytics integrations (Datadog/Portkey), and testing pipelines that brought TDD and 75% coverage to production LLM services. Earlier roles span research and system-building at Microsoft, TCS, and civic projects—ranging from wildlife-monitoring UGVs to dark-web analytics for Kerala Police—illustrating a knack for applied ML and pragmatic engineering. Colleagues rely on him to translate research improvements (e.g., lifting extractor accuracy from 62% to 97% via fine-tuning) into reliable, scalable deployments that meet Fortune 500 needs.
