About
I'm an AI Architect and hands on AI & Data engineer. I design the architecture, and I write the code needed to prove it, improve it, and ship it.
1M+ engineers, architects, and AI practitioners follow my work across Linkedin, X and Instagram. I publish practitioner level architecture breakdowns, visual explainers, and practical frameworks covering agentic AI, evals, MCP, AI infrastructure, and governance. 250K+ builders read my newsletter.
16+ years building secure, production grade AI and data platforms inside complex regulated enterprises across financial services, healthcare, and insurance. Patent holder in AI and fintech. Selected as one of 11 technical creators for the Oracle Creator Lab.
What I work on:
→ Agentic and multi agent systems: orchestration, planning, memory, durable execution and state, tool use, failure recovery, human in the loop, and AgentOps
→ Evaluation and observability: eval harnesses, LLM as judge, tracing, regression testing, drift and hallucination measurement, and closing the gap between benchmark performance and production behavior
→ Agent identity and security: verifiable identities for agents, users, tools, and workloads, delegated authorization, least privilege, consent, provenance, prompt injection defense, and zero trust controls
→ AI governance: policy enforcement, permissions, human approvals, red teaming, model and data jurisdiction, explainability, auditability, and Responsible AI
→ Enterprise RAG and GraphRAG: hybrid search, context engineering, query rewriting, retrieval optimization, grounding, and evaluation
→ AI infrastructure: multi model routing, inference cost and latency optimization, vLLM, BentoML, Kubernetes, GPU workloads, AI gateways, and hybrid local and cloud execution
Built with Python, FastAPI, LangGraph, Google ADK, Microsoft Agent Framework, MCP, vector databases, Kafka, Spark, Docker, Kubernetes, MLflow, AWS Bedrock, Vertex AI, and Azure AI.
I treat identity, governance, permissions, provenance, and trust as infrastructure. They cannot be documentation added after deployment. Every AI system should deliver measurable value, manageable risk, operational resilience, and sustainable total cost of ownership.
The next frontier is trusted infrastructure for intelligent workflows. That is where I'm focused.
Working with me: brand partnerships, sponsored technical content, developer marketing, and advisory for AI startups. Reach me at brij.py@gmail.com

Brij Kishore Pandey reposted thisAn AI agent can give the right answer and still fail the test. Imagine a support agent that resolves a customer’s issue, but sends their personal data to an unauthorized tool along the way. If your evaluation only scores the response, that run could look successful. I’d want to know which identity made that call, what data the tool received, and whether we could have blocked the action or stopped the run. Those questions belong in the development process. That is part of what ADLC, the Agent Development Lifecycle, addresses. SDLC gives us established practices for building, testing, releasing, and maintaining software. MLOps adds versioned data, model evaluation, monitoring, and drift management. With agents, we also have to evaluate the tools and actions they choose during execution. Google Cloud’s Advent of Agents Season 3 opens with ADLC, then covers identity, security, deployment, observability, and operations throughout October. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗖 𝗽𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲𝘀 -𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗽𝗲: Decide what the agent should do, who owns it, and where its authority ends. -𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱: Develop with Agents CLI and ADK. Test its tool choices alongside its responses. -𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲: Make deployment repeatable using infrastructure as code. -𝗚𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻: Enforce identity, permissions, and policy throughout the lifecycle. -𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲: Use evaluations and execution traces to understand failures and improve the next version. Governance starts when you define the boundaries. It does not wait until step four. 𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗗𝗟𝗖, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀 • Identity and access: how an agent acts on someone’s behalf without gaining extra permissions. • Runtime protection: handling prompt injection, data leakage, and code execution risks. • Fleet management: knowing who owns each agent and which tools it can use. • Observability and containment: reconstructing what happened during a run and stopping unsafe behavior. • Day 2 operations: managing cost, catching regressions, and continuing to evaluate after deployment. My suggestion: pick one agent and use it throughout the month. After each relevant episode, add a control, an evaluation, or a trace you can inspect. Each episode stands on its own, so start with a problem you are already working on. And keep the support-agent example in mind: would your current evaluations catch that unauthorized tool call? The series runs October 1 to 31, with one question a day, a practitioner video, and runnable code. It is open to everyone, with no sign in or paywall. Make this your October learning plan: 31 days of practitioner videos and runnable code on building, testing, securing, and operating AI agents.

Brij Kishore Pandey reposted thisA lot of LLM calls inside agent pipelines exist to answer one small question. Which queue gets this ticket. How risky is this request. Should this tool call run. TypeSafe AI released Jev in early access on September 15, and it is built for those calls. It is a decision model and generates no text. The animation shows the timing. Jev returns three answers in a single beat. The LLM builds a sentence word by word, then hands it to a parser before the app can use it. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗝𝗲𝘃 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 You send state (a ticket, a record, some JSON) plus typed questions. There are three question types: - Choice picks one option from a set you define - Score places the input on an ordered scale and can land between levels, like 1.4 - Noul returns the probability that a yes or no question is true Every question is answered in one pass, each with probabilities. The answer can only be a value you defined, so there is no text to parse or repair. 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗟𝗠 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴𝘀 An LLM generates its reply token by token. You want that for reasoning, planning, writing, and code. For a routing decision it adds latency and cost, and your code still has to validate the text before acting on it. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗴𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 Guardrails in an agent system are mostly decisions: should this action run, does this case need a human, is this output safe to send. A typed answer with a probability gives you a threshold you can tune, a value you can log for audit, and a clear rule for sending low confidence cases to a person. The policy itself stays in your code, where reviewers can read it. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 - TypeSafe has not published the model size, training data, or architecture - It is in early access, so pricing and limits may change - Vendor benchmarks tell you little about your own decisions. Pin a model version and test it against cases your team has already labeled If you were writing the rule for your team, what would decide whether a step in an agent gets a typed decision model or a full LLM?

Brij Kishore Pandey reposted thisThis diagram shows every part of an AI agent at work. This animation follows one AI agent through a full run. The request is "Summarize Q3 churn, email the team." The agent goes around the plan, act, observe loop three times before the task is done.

Brij Kishore Pandey liked thisBrij Kishore Pandey liked thisToday I am joining New Relic as Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board of Directors. I have spent my career working on the infrastructure problems that sit closest to how engineers build and operate software. As AI transforms how applications are built and operated, engineers need observability tools they can trust, and New Relic is built to deliver that. New Relic sits at an extraordinary inflection point in enterprise technology. As AI transforms application architectures and complexity escalates, engineers need observability tools they can trust implicitly, and New Relic is built to deliver exactly that. I have dedicated my career to solving this problem, and I am thrilled to lead this talented team as we expand our AI-powered observability platform and help our customers build with clarity and confidence. Thank you to the New Relic team for the warm welcome. I look forward to working with each of you and am thrilled to lead such a talented team.

Brij Kishore Pandey liked thisBrij Kishore Pandey liked thisA few months after joining LinkedIn, I was struggling to adjust from entrepreneur to pm at a larger company. I went to Ryan’s office (a fast-rising exec at the time with this killer profile) and let him know it was best for everyone if I moved on. The next morning, I came into work and there was Ryan, sitting right next to me in our little shared cubicle. He told me he had decided to change desks. I learned more watching him in those next few months, and had more fun, than I ever have at work. And thanks to his act of kindness, I ended up not quitting.

Why are changes taking longer to ship?” I couldnt answer on the spot, but it turned out to be classic queueing theory. Agents increased the number of PRs arriving (producers), but review capacity stayed flat (consumers). When a team is already near full utilization, even a small increase in arrivals creates a much longer wait. Once PRs arrive faster than people can review them, the backlog never clears. PRs opened per day gt; PRs reviewed per day → backlog grows every day On top of that, one agent task can also produce several related PRs across different repositories. Handle those PRs independently, and the team reconstructs the same context for every piece. Then you hear that manager telling you to review faster, which, spoiler alert, isnt much of a strategy. I think we need to focus on giving that time back by making priorities clear and keeping related changes together. That’s the problem Qodo 3.0’s PR Triage goes after. It groups related PRs into a single work package, ranks it by impact and open findings, and shows every repo it touches. You still review the code, but you see the whole unit of work instead of rebuilding it PR by PR. Faster code generation without faster verification just creates a longer queue. https://lnkd.in/e53AVVsK

Brij Kishore Pandey liked thisBrij Kishore Pandey liked thisThe Roman Empire paid for Indian goods in gold, and a single hoard in southern India held over 8,000 of the coins. The Kottayam hoard, north of Nelcynda, was probably deposited from a Roman vessel that foundered off the coast, and the latest coins were struck under Nero. More than 20 hoards from the reign of Augustus alone have turned up in the Tamil country, the Coimbatore Gap has produced more Roman coins than the rest of the subcontinent combined, and the Chera, Pandya and Chola kings minted coins imitating Roman portraits. Pliny put the annual outflow at 50 million sesterces. Kottayam, at about 800,000, is a small fraction of a single year. I've written up the full story in my latest Substack essay (link below).

Let’s talk about data (19/50) With a strong focus around AI, GenAI data leaders may now want to understand “how can AI and Generative AI accelerate compliance with India’s IT DPDP Rules?” So after doing some research i understood AI and Gen AI can be powerful accelerators for IT DPDP adoption when used as compliance agents rather than black boxes. They can continuously scan IT systems and operational logs to identify where personal data sits, flag risky processing based on the controls, and map it back to DPDP rules. Gen AI can also simplify legal and policy language into role‑based guidance for different personas, reducing training friction and human error. Apart from that AI can also automate DPIAs, consent and notice checks, and vendor‑risk reviews, making DPDP controls “always on” instead of annual exercises. When combined with strong foundation that comprise of IT governance, data governance and human oversight, organisations can turn regulatory challenges into operational advantages. #datagovernance #datadrivenenterprises #digitaltransformation #ITDPDPAct #DNAOrb #ITDPDPACT #AIGenAI #dataprivacy

re:Invent Day 1 is done and it was packed! My day began with a roundtable with some of our best partners talking about how we can better help customers migrate and modernize their AI workloads and use cases. Then Priya Arora and I presented on-stage on how Agentic AI is opening opportunities for partners, from ISVs and SIs, to startups. We shared data from our survey we did with BCG showing the trends in customer adoption of AI, focusing on the industries and use cases with the highest momentum. We also uncovered areas where customers need the most help and support as they roll out their agentic use cases. After that I sat down with 3 key partners, grabbed lunch with a few AWS peers I don't get to see often enough, and had a lot of ad hoc hallway meetings. (It's hard to walk 10 feet at re:Invent without seeing someone you know) But my highlight was launching the new AI Competency and Agentic AI categories for partners. I had a chance to join the AWS OnAir team to talk about it. My team was the driving force behind the launch and I'm proud of what this means for our partner community. We spent months listening to partners tell us they needed a way to stand out in customer conversations around agentic AI. The new AI Competency creates three distinct specialization paths. Agentic AI Applications recognizes partners delivering production-ready autonomous systems. Agentic AI Tools validates partners providing the infrastructure and tooling that makes agent development possible. Agentic AI Consulting Services distinguishes partners with proven expertise helping enterprises design, build, and scale agentic deployments. Each path requires demonstrated technical depth and validated customer outcomes, not just certifications or marketing claims. We launched with 60 partners who achieved the AI specialization. That's the highest number of launch partners in any AWS Competency program so far. Partners like Loka, Anthropic, LangChain, and Mission are already proving their ability to deploy AI systems that handle real business processes autonomously. That validation matters when enterprises are making critical technology decisions. Partners achieving these specializations gain access to funding, co-marketing resources, and priority placement in customer engagements. But what matters most is the market differentiation. When customers are evaluating dozens of partners claiming agentic AI expertise, this competency provides a clear signal about who has actually done the work. For enterprises evaluating partners, this competency provides the differentiation signal you need. These partners have solved the hard problems of moving agents from demo to production, from single use case to enterprise platform. The timing matters. Enterprises are moving past whether to deploy agentic AI and into how to do it at scale. Partners with proven expertise become increasingly valuable as deployment complexity increases. That's what makes this competency so important.

India is entering the foundational AI layer — not just building applications on top of global LLMs, but building the models themselves 🇮🇳 Sarvam AI represents a shift toward: ✔️ Indic-first transformer architectures ✔️ Multilingual + code-mixed training datasets ✔️ Sovereign model hosting ✔️ Enterprise & governance-grade fine-tuning ✔️ Scalable inference for Bharat-scale workloads For architects and engineers, this is a strategic inflection point. The future of AI in India will be: • Context-aware • Language-inclusive • Data-sovereign • Enterprise-integrated As AI engineers, we should start thinking beyond API consumption — and toward model adaptation, fine-tuning, RAG pipelines, and AI-native system design. India is not just using AI. India is building AI. #AIArchitecture #LLM #GenerativeAI #SarvamAI #IndiaAI #MachineLearning #DigitalPublicInfrastructure #AIEngineering

Wrote a blog explaining "LoRA Fine-tuning Efficiency Under Different Loss Functions." LoRA made fine-tuning cheap, but not always efficient. This post explores how loss functions like Cross-Entropy, Label Smoothing, and Focal Loss change convergence, stability, and generalization in lightweight LLMs. Read here: https://lnkd.in/gh_vm2kG

🧠'Agent Learning via Early Experience' As an AI Architect, this work stands out for its pioneering approach to training language agents—moving beyond passive imitation learning and bridging toward a true era of experience. Instead of relying on expert demonstrations or reward-based RL, the authors introduce a scalable middle-ground: agents learn by interacting with environments, then using those resulting states as direct supervision, without reward signals. 🔍 Key insights: • Motivation: Real-world agents often face hard-to-scale expert data and sparse—or absent—rewards. This paradigm lets agents learn from their own actions, scaling up diversity and generalization. • Methods: Two main strategies—implicit world modeling (internalizing environment dynamics) and self-reflection (learning from 'what went wrong'). Both use agents' own experiences to improve reasoning and robustness. • Results: Evaluated across 8 environments and major model families (Llama, Qwen), these approaches consistently outperform standard imitation learning, especially in complex and out-of-domain tasks. Early experience even boosts downstream RL, serving as a strong warm start for further finetuning. • Implications: Practical signal for agentic AI system design—build architectures that leverage interaction-derived learning, not just rewards or pre-collected demos. This can make agents more resilient, adaptive, and capable in open-ended domains (web, tools, APIs). Curious how 'early experience' could transform future agent frameworks and LLM deployments? 🔗 Attaching the original research PDF for those who want to dive deeper! #AI #LLM #AgenticAI #ReinforcementLearning #LanguageAgents #AIArchitecture

Rethinking how information flows in Large Language Models We’ve scaled LLMs by adding more parameters, data, and compute—but connectivity itself is becoming the next bottleneck. In my latest blog, I dive into Manifold-Constrained Hyper-Connections (mHC) by DeepSeek, a new architectural idea that: 1. Moves beyond single-stream residual connections 2. Enables stable multi-stream information flow 3. Uses mathematical constraints (via Sinkhorn normalization) to make expressive models trainable at scale. The key takeaway: constraints don’t limit intelligence—they enable it. mHC shows how principled architecture design can unlock deeper, more expressive, and more stable AI systems. If you’re interested in LLM architecture, scaling challenges, or the future of model design, you might enjoy this read 👇 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gS9fiMZ3 #AI #LLMs #DeepLearning #MachineLearning #AIArchitecture #GenerativeAI

Skills That Matter for Building LLM, RAG, and Agentic AI Applications Building LLM-, RAG-, and agentic AI- applications is less about any single discipline and more about the amalgamation of skills across engineering, data science, and product thinking. Teams achieve this amalgamation not through deliberate pairing, shared ownership of system behavior, and cross-functional reviews. Here’s how I think about the skills that need to come together - and how teams can intentionally blend them. Core skills that cut across LLM, RAG, and agentic systems • problem framing and task decomposition • prompt and instruction design as an interface, not magic • retrieval design: what to fetch, when, and why • evaluation thinking beyond accuracy (failure modes, drift, edge cases) • understanding probabilistic outputs vs deterministic expectations • designing guardrails, constraints, and human-in-the-loop flows These systems succeed or fail at the system level, not the model level. System engineering skills that become critical System engineers already bring strengths in scalability, reliability, and integration. What’s new is learning to operate in a stochastic world. Key shifts: • deterministic → probabilistic behavior • idempotent logic → best-effort reasoning • fixed outputs → distributions and confidence • debugging code → diagnosing behavior What system engineers need to add: • a working understanding of how models learn from data • why LLMs can sound confident and still be wrong • how retrieval, memory, and tools shape outcomes • how to design for uncertainty, not eliminate it You don’t need to become a data scientist - but you do need to understand the underbelly of AI: what’s real signal, what’s pattern matching, and where illusions come from. Data science skills that complement this shift Data scientists bring deep strengths in: • statistical thinking • uncertainty, bias, and variance • model evaluation and validation What many now need to add: • software engineering discipline (APIs, services, observability) • system-level thinking beyond isolated models • product and workflow awareness • operating constraints: latency, cost, reliability, governance Beyond concepts, some concrete skills matter: • designing retrieval pipelines and embeddings • building evaluation harnesses for LLM behavior • understanding orchestration frameworks and tool use • measuring performance at the application level, not just model metrics The real shift LLM, RAG, and agentic applications sit between disciplines. They require: • engineering judgment • statistical thinking • product sense • and systems design The teams that succeed won’t be the ones with the “right titles.” They’ll be the ones that deliberately blend these skills — and know where human judgment still belongs. #AI #EnterpriseAI #LLM #RAG #AgenticAI #AIEngineering #ResponsibleAI #TYS #RayAI #AILiteracy #IntelligenceInBits
