Currently a Developer Advocate at Gaia 🌱 (https://gaianet.ai). I focus on onboarding developers, enterprises create, launch and scale their own AI Agents.

I was a Community Lead for AngelHack, a global company dedicated to Developer Relations and building diverse communities of change makers and innovators worldwide for over 11 years. I am also a passionate advocate for no-code technology and believe in empowering individuals to bring their own ideas to life without coding.

I have helped run some of the best hackathons and developer competitions globally, providing opportunities for developers to showcase their skills and ideas. I have also hosted and ran over 200 hackathons for developers and students across India, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Dubai, and more countries.

In my spare time, I help entrepreneurs build and automate anything without coding. I create content on YouTube about no-code and help entrepreneurs build their businesses and automate their tasks. I am passionate about using technology to solve real-world problems and make a positive impact on the world.

I have worked with Microsoft, Discover, IBM, AWS, Mastercard, Jina.ai, DataStax, Consensys, Algorand, Celo, Zepeto, and Polkadot, and more in helping with their developer acquisition and developer relations.

I am excited to be part of the tech community and am always looking for new ways to support and empower developers and entrepreneurs.

OpenSearch with Gaia: Building Next-Gen AI-Driven Search and Analytics Workflows

This session explores how Gaia’s decentralized AI platform integrates with OpenSearch to create scalable, privacy-preserving solutions for semantic search, generative AI applications, and real-time analytics.

In this session, I intend to demonstrate a use case where Gaia’s federated learning models enhance OpenSearch’s vector database capabilities, enabling dynamic personalization and efficient retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows.

Gaia’s AI Framework: How Gaia’s decentralized architecture complements OpenSearch’s ecosystem, particularly in scenarios requiring data privacy and distributed model training (e.g., healthcare or financial analytics).

Demo a RAG Pipeline: Build a real-world demo/example using Gaia’s language models to generate embeddings stored in OpenSearch’s binary vector indexes (new in v2.19), coupled with OpenSearch Flow for automated pipeline configuration.

Community Impact: A look at how this integration supports OpenSearch’s goal of becoming the preferred backend for generative AI while adhering to open governance principles.
