About me

Shishir Subedi

Software Engineer & Researcher

Background

A self-motivated software engineer with 6+ years of experience delivering high-quality software solutions. I completed my Bachelor's in Electronics and Communication Engineering and Master's in Data Science and Analytics from IOE Pulchowk Campus. During my studies, when I took data mining as an elective subject in Bachelor's degree, I became fascinated by the power of data and how it's driving the world today.

That moment sparked my passion for data science and AI. Today, I involve more in research and development work on Large Language Models and Vector databases. I work on solving domain-specific problems through prompt engineering, model fine-tuning, and building AI based applications that help organizations to solve their problems.
