Ravi Shankar · Applied AI Engineer

Building with AI.
Learning it from the inside out.

My work has long lived in Applied AI—turning models into useful, reliable systems. Increasingly, I am going deeper into core AI and machine learning: the mathematics, architectures, and ideas beneath the applications.

Professional work

Applied AI at Salesforce

Where AI has to leave the demo and become dependable infrastructure.

I build AI in real systems, where scale, reliability, observability, and practical usefulness matter as much as the model itself. This is where my interest in Applied AI is tested against the complexity of production.
