Dhakma: AI/ML Platform Engineering for Enterprise Scale
We help organizations navigate the technical and strategic challenges of deploying AI/ML systems at production scale. Led by Dr. Tharindu Mathew (PhD Computer Science, ex-Microsoft Azure), we bring a unique combination of cutting-edge research expertise and hyperscale infrastructure experience.
What We Do:
- LLM Deployment Strategy: Architecture design, cost optimization, build-vs-buy analysis
- RAG System Implementation: Vector databases, chunking strategies, retrieval optimization
- Multi-Agent Orchestration: Framework selection, coordination patterns, failure handling
- Edge AI Solutions: NVIDIA Jetson deployment, quantization, sub-200ms latency optimization
- Azure Cloud Architecture: Platform design, distributed systems, performance tuning
- Computer Vision Systems: 3D object detection, instance segmentation, synthetic data pipelines
Notable Impact:
- $1B+ cost savings delivered through Azure infrastructure optimization
- 42% memory reduction and 50% latency improvement in critical distributed systems
- Managed hyperscale infrastructure across Azure's entire Core Platform fleet
- Autonomous vehicle perception systems (Uber ATG experience)
Ideal Clients:
- Organizations evaluating LLM deployment strategies (self-hosted vs. API, open-source vs. commercial)
- Companies architecting RAG systems and need expert guidance on technical decisions
- Enterprises planning Azure migrations or optimizing existing cloud infrastructure
- Technical due diligence for AI/ML startups (investors and acquirers)
- Edge AI deployment projects requiring hardware selection and optimization expertise
Why Work With Us:
We don't just understand the research papers- we've deployed these systems at Microsoft Azure scale. Our engagements focus on real-world constraints: cost,latency,reliability, and maintainability.
