AI/ML @ CheQ · IIT Delhi '25 · Conversational AI for Fintech
Aditya Raj Pandey
Software Engineer·AI / ML
I build production-grade LLM and applied-NLP systems — from in-house entity recognition to retrieval-augmented assistants — and ship them end-to-end into fintech pipelines.
Engineer at the intersection of LLMs, NLP, and product.
I'm a Software Engineer (AI/ML) at CheQ, building conversational AI and applied-NLP systems for fintech. After a B.Tech in Engineering Physics at IIT Delhi, I've focused on taking models from prototype to production — owning evaluation, compliance, and deployment, not just notebooks.
My core work spans information extraction, text classification, and LLM-powered systems in regulated, production environments. I like learning by building, asking a lot of questions, and the kind of thoughtful conversation that's usually about tech, philosophy, or a really good film.

Software Engineer — AI/ML
CheQ · Bengaluru
Full-time Nov 2025 — PresentProgressed from AI/ML Intern (Sep–Nov 2025). Building CheQWisor, an LLM-powered assistant for credit insights and user intelligence.
Merchant Entity Recognition (in-house NER)
- Led end-to-end development of an in-house Merchant NER, removing third-party vendor dependency in a regulated domain.
- Benchmarked SpaCy, GLiNER and FinBERT; productionized FinBERT with evaluation and compliance validation.
- Migrated label schema BIO → BILO and scaled data, lifting coverage from 93% → 99% at 97% F1.
LLM Sentiment & Issue Classification
- Scoped the problem with Product — defining taxonomy and ownership through cross-functional collaboration.
- Designed prompt-based sentiment & issue classification with iterative prompt-engineering refinement.
- Shipped user-sentiment intelligence via alerts and logging, enabling data-driven product decisions.
Chatbot Web Retrieval (domain-specific crawling)
- Ran a POC evaluating Firecrawl, Exa, Vertex AI and Crawl4AI for chatbot web-search integration.
- Analysed 3 months of chatbot queries and curated a 50-query golden dataset across all query types.
- Built a weekly crawl → LLM-summarization → vector-DB embedding pipeline for retrieval.
