Hi, I'm Hari Jaiswal

AI Transformation Lead | Multi-Agent Systems | Enterprise AI Strategy

I help organizations transform through AI -- from strategy and maturity assessment to building multi-agent systems and scaling enterprise-wide adoption.

About Me

Hari Jaiswal

Hello! I'm an AI Transformation Leader with 20+ years in enterprise IT.

My career has spanned the full arc of enterprise technology -- from hands-on development at Microsoft, to leading Agile transformations at Deutsche Bank, to now driving AI adoption at scale for UHG Optum through TCS.

Currently, I lead AI transformation initiatives at TCS for UHG Optum, where I design multi-agent systems, conduct AI maturity assessments, and build training programs that help enterprise teams move from AI curiosity to AI competency.

What sets me apart is the combination of deep technical skills in AI/ML (M.Tech from BITS Pilani, hands-on research in RL and multi-agent systems) with two decades of experience navigating enterprise complexity -- stakeholder management, change management, and large-scale program delivery.

I've worked across Healthcare (UHG/Optum), Banking & Finance (Deutsche Bank, Russell Investments, Vanguard), and Hi-Tech (Microsoft) -- bringing cross-domain perspective to every AI initiative I lead.

My Projects

Here are some of my recent works

Autonomous Tool Discovery System

M.Tech dissertation exploring autonomous tool discovery through reinforcement learning and the Model Context Protocol. Achieved 50.33% task completion rate with 7.5% improvement over baseline strategies using Q-learning and DQN.

Why it matters: Demonstrates how AI agents can autonomously discover and compose tools -- a core capability for enterprise multi-agent systems.

Python Q-Learning FastAPI NLP NetworkX

RAG Financial Chatbot

Retrieval-Augmented Generation chatbot for answering financial questions based on company statements. Implements advanced RAG techniques including chunk merging, adaptive retrieval, BM25 search, and guardrails with a Streamlit web interface.

Why it matters: Shows how RAG enables domain-specific AI assistants that enterprises can trust -- grounded in real data with built-in guardrails.

Python RAG Streamlit Embeddings BM25

MLOps Pipeline with DVC

MLOps project implementing data version control for house price prediction models. Uses DVC for versioning datasets and models with Azure Blob Storage integration, ensuring reproducibility and collaboration in ML workflows.

Why it matters: Production ML requires reproducibility and governance -- this pipeline ensures models are versioned, traceable, and auditable.

Python DVC Azure MLOps Conda

Fashion MNIST MLOps Pipeline

Comprehensive MLOps workflow for Fashion MNIST featuring automated EDA, HOG feature engineering, model explainability with LIME/SHAP, hyperparameter optimization using Optuna, and production monitoring with MLflow for drift detection.

Why it matters: End-to-end MLOps with explainability and drift detection -- the kind of production-grade pipeline enterprises need for responsible AI.

Python MLflow LIME SHAP Optuna

Autoencoder Variants for Feature Extraction

Comparative study of dimensionality reduction techniques — Standard/Randomized PCA vs Tied-Weight and Deep Convolutional Autoencoders on CIFAR-10 and MNIST. Achieved 0.989 cosine similarity validating PCA-autoencoder equivalence, and orders-of-magnitude reconstruction improvement with deep convolutional architectures.

Why it matters: Understanding when deep learning outperforms classical methods is key to choosing the right tool for enterprise feature engineering.

Python TensorFlow Keras PCA scikit-learn

Advanced GAN Implementations on CIFAR-10

Systematic comparison of four GAN architectures — WGAN-GP, SNGAN, SAGAN, and SAGAN without spectral normalization (ablation study). SNGAN achieved best FID of 35.1; ablation study demonstrated spectral normalization's critical role in preventing mode collapse.

Why it matters: Rigorous ablation studies like this build the empirical foundation for selecting generative AI architectures in production settings.

Python PyTorch GANs CUDA Deep Learning

Dice Game — Reinforcement Learning

Solved a stochastic dice game using Dynamic Programming. Implemented Policy Iteration and Value Iteration to find the optimal strategy (roll at 1–19, stop at 20–99) in a Markov Decision Process, validated over 10,000 simulations.

Why it matters: RL fundamentals like MDPs and dynamic programming underpin the decision-making logic in modern AI agents and autonomous systems.
