# Prateek Mulye > Senior Software Engineer and AI Engineer. 11+ years building back-end systems that hold up under real load, now bringing AI into the same engineering discipline. ## Summary I have spent 11+ years building distributed back-end systems: event-driven services on Apache Kafka, PostgreSQL tuned past 30M rows, idempotent recovery, and the service contracts that keep things honest when traffic spikes. I learned that on financial and banking platforms where a mistake costs money. More recently I have been contributing to AI-assisted applications at Agilent and building multi-agent and retrieval systems in my own projects. ## Availability - Open to relocation across the EU (Germany first, also the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland) and the UAE (Dubai). - 11+ years of professional IT experience. - Email: prateekmulye@gmail.com - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/prateekmulye - GitHub: https://github.com/prateekmulye - Site: https://prateekmulye.dev ## Experience - Agilent Technologies (2026 to present), Manufacturing Systems: contributing to a manufacturing-AI effort, prototyping a retrieval-augmented layer over standard-operating-procedure documents with schema validation and guardrails. - HG Insights (2021 to 2025), Senior Software Engineer: designed and owned a geo-standardization service that normalized 15M+ company records into canonical shapes; scaled PostgreSQL past 30M rows; cut dashboard latency by more than 60%. - Capital One via Cognizant (2018 to 2021), Senior Backend Engineer: owned Kafka workflows with a dead-letter strategy, bounded retry with backoff, and idempotent replay; built an OpenResty layer holding 12K+ TPS in test. - AurionPro Solutions (2013 to 2015), Software Engineer: built the secure login and anti-phishing layer for a Kenyan bank's first online-banking platform in Java. ## Projects - FinResearch AI (live): a multi-agent market-intelligence system with Pydantic-validated, guardrailed output. https://huggingface.co/spaces/prateekmulye/FinResearchAI - f1-agent (live): an agentic demo answering Formula 1 questions over live data. https://f1-agent.vercel.app - AegisHarness (building): agentic security middleware in Java 21, Spring Boot, and Kafka, checking LLM traffic against OWASP agentic-security risks. - GlobalNomad AI (building): cross-border tax and visa compliance, built on Elixir, Phoenix, and Oban Pro with LangGraph reasoning. ## Stack Java, Elixir/Phoenix, Python, TypeScript.
