Hi, I'm Bharat ChandraBuilding AI systems that actually ship.
Final-year CSE student at GITAM University Hyderabad. I build production-grade ML pipelines, rocket telemetry backends, and full-stack platforms for real clients — not just notebooks.
Work Experience
A journey through my professional career and key achievements
AI/ML Engineering Intern
