Summary
Shivam Akhauri is a Staff Machine Learning Engineer with 9 years of experience building production-grade AI infrastructure and agent platforms for enterprise observability and document intelligence. Based in Austin, he designed a cross-cloud Foundation-Agent Marketplace and an LLMOps control plane that reduced agent onboarding from weeks to hours while meeting SOC 2 and FedRAMP-aligned controls. Previously he architected a multimodal long-context foundation model that boosted document-extraction F1 from 92% to 97% across 50M+ financial documents and cut serving costs by $200K annually. Shivam combines low-level edge-AI optimization—hand-stitched cuDNN inference runtimes and lightweight depth networks—with high-level orchestration like LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, and RLHF gates to deliver 99.9% SLAs. He has published peer-reviewed research on domain-adaptive RL for autonomous driving and repeatedly translates cutting-edge models into scalable, cost-efficient systems. An engineer comfortable across Python, Go, Rust and embedded C++, he focuses on making complex AI agents actually work in production.
