I am Lakshman Kumar Jamili, a Lead Gen AI Architect and AI Solution Strategist with over 12 years of experience in software development, architecture, and AI solutions. I have been recognized as a Top Performer at CVS Health, receiving a 5/5 rating, awarded to only a select few employees for exceptional contributions and excellence in work. 

 

Throughout my career, I have specialized in building enterprise-scale AI solutions, with a particular focus on Gen AI, intelligent document processing, multi-modal RAG systems, and voice-based AI. My work has spanned across various industries, with a deep focus on healthcare, where I’ve designed platforms to automate complex workflows such as contract analysis, prior authorizations, claims processing, and customer service interactions. 

 

I am highly skilled in designing and implementing scalable Gen AI solutions using technologies like Azure Cloud, Docker, AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service), LLMs (including GPT-4, GPT-4o, and Llama3), and advanced frameworks like LangChain. I have a strong background in agentic AI, where I have developed intelligent agents to automate intricate workflows, leading to significant operational improvements in business-critical processes. I have extensive hands-on experience with custom embeddings, multi-modal RAG (retrieval-augmented generation), and building AI-driven automation systems that reduce manual effort, improve accuracy, and ensure compliance. 

 

I have led multiple cross-functional teams, ranging from backend orchestration to UI/UX development and advanced prompt engineering, ensuring collaborative execution of high-impact projects. In addition to my technical expertise, I also bring strong leadership and mentoring skills, guiding teams through Agile development cycles, ensuring high-quality product delivery, and fostering an environment of innovation. 

 

As part of my role, I actively engage in strategic oversight and AI project delivery, often serving as a POC lead for AI solutions, where I oversee the design and implementation of cutting-edge technologies.
