I build AI systems that show their work.

I’m Ramanan, an Associate Software Developer at Oracle. I turn scattered knowledge and operational evidence into grounded RAG, agent, and MCP workflows that engineers can actually trust.

01 / Capabilities

From retrieval quality to the runtime underneath it.

AI and automation

RAG, LLM applications, agents, MCP, semantic search, knowledge ingestion, evidence grounding, transformers, and fine-tuning.

Backend and data

Python, FastAPI, REST APIs, SQL, Oracle Database, ADW, MongoDB, Azure Cosmos DB, ingestion, and background workflows.

Platform and quality

OCI, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, GitHub Actions, CI/CD, Playwright, Pytest, Postman, monitoring, and delivery.

Oracle

Associate Software Developer

July 2024 - Present

Designed and built evidence-backed support intelligence for financial-services engineering, then evolved it into an MCP-first, skill-driven runtime.

50+ users since launch
~1.4K estimated queries since June 2025
~650 estimated conversations since June 2025
545 measured MCP calls in the latest 3 weeks

The conversation and query totals use a linear adoption estimate. At four MCP calls per query, the same model suggests approximately 5,000-6,000 cumulative data-tool calls.

  • Built natural-language investigation across defect metadata, comments, documentation, and operational knowledge while preserving the evidence behind each answer.
  • Owned the software development lifecycle across ingestion, user management, documentation, production delivery, and proactive weekly features.
  • Expanded horizontally to additional financial-services products and vertically through product-specific capabilities.
  • Worked across tenant lifecycle, identity, secrets, artifacts, Docker, Kubernetes, Jenkins, logging, monitoring, and upgrades.
  • Supported Corporate Security and Assurance Process (CSSAP) reviews and internal production approvals.
  • Built root-cause workflows, reusable skills, plugin delivery, and repository-to-wiki automation with controlled updates.
