Hello Everyone!

I’m Pratik Pranav, a Senior Software Engineer at ThirdAI Corp. I love developing scalable machine learning solutions, focusing on efficient model training and building robust systems. In my role, I get to blend machine learning with systems engineering to create reliable and high-performance technologies that make a real impact.
