Hi, I'm

Gitesh Kumar

I build

I specialize in bridging the gap between legacy industrial infrastructure and modern AI. With 4+ years of experience at Hindustan Petroleum, I lead the digital modernization of safety-critical systems, transforming messy SCADA/ERP data into high-performance ML architectures. My expertise lies in Safety-by-Design by building robust RAG frameworks and explainable vision systems for autonomous industrial processes.
