ML Engineer focused on computer vision, MLOps, and applied LLM systems. Built production pipelines processing 10K+ docs/day and automation saving 2,000+ manual hours/quarter. MS CS (ML) @ CSULB · Graduating May 2026.

01.about_me

Building the future, one model at a time.

Hey, I'm Shiven— a Machine Learning Engineer who loves building systems that learn, adapt, and create real business impact. I'm currently wrapping up my MS in Computer Science (ML track) at CSULB, where my focus has been computer vision, deep learning architectures, and production ML systems.

Outside academia, I've shipped ML pipelines for enterprise clients at Zentrais LLC — from LLM document processors handling 10K+ docs/day to anomaly detection dashboards on AWS. Before that, at UiPath India, I automated 2,000+ manual hours/quarter using RPA and ML-powered OCR.

When I'm not pushing code, I'm probably analyzing soccer match footage with YOLOv8, tinkering with LLM agents, or hiking somewhere with bad cell service.

Sign Language Translation to Text Using Deep Learning

Published 2023SRM University of Science & Technology
Shiven Paudyal, Sahil Ali, Dr. G. Niranjana (Supervisor) — B.Tech Computer Science & Engineering

Abstract

This research presents a deep learning-based system for real-time translation of sign language gestures into text. Using convolutional neural networks and sequence modeling, the system bridges communication barriers for the hearing-impaired community by accurately classifying hand gestures and converting them to natural language text with high accuracy.

Things I've Built

A selection of ML systems, data pipelines, and AI-powered applications.

Sign Language Translator

LIVE📄 Published Research

Real-time American Sign Language gesture recognition running entirely in the browser. Detects 29 ASL classes (A-Z plus SPACE, DELETE, NOTHING) using MediaPipe hand tracking and a custom-trained TensorFlow.js neural network. Achieves 95%+ frame-level accuracy with temporal smoothing across a 15-frame rolling window to handle ambiguous letter pairs (U/V, M/N, A/S). Built as the production implementation of my published B.Tech research on deep learning for sign language translation.

Job Market Intelligence Agent

LIVE

Full-stack autonomous agent that scrapes 1,200+ ML/DS job postings daily from Greenhouse, Lever, and LinkedIn, extracts structured data via Groq LLM, generates 384-dim embeddings for semantic resume matching, and emails a weekly market intelligence report. Includes a public job board, skill trend dashboard, and REST API.

AI Career Coach

LIVE

Serverless AI career coaching agent built on Cloudflare's edge platform with persistent cross-session memory. Analyzes uploaded resumes to deliver structured ATS feedback, rewrites bullet points, and preps users for mock interviews — all powered by Llama 3.3 70B inference via Workers AI. Cross-session memory is backed by Durable Objects with SQLite, so context persists across browser refreshes with no traditional backend.

Sports Video Analytics

Real-time soccer player tracking system using YOLOv8 object detection with Kalman Filter for trajectory smoothing. Generates tactical heatmaps, speed metrics, and formation analysis from raw match footage.

Built on Roboflow's detection backbone — Kalman tracking, tactical heatmaps, and formation analysis are original implementations.
