He is currently an AI Engineer at Scale AI, where he works on enterprise AI products, and he also does contract work building AI agents for CPA tax workflows at a fintech startup\. Hemanth founded UNFROZEN, an AI communication\-coaching SaaS with active paying subscribers, which he built solo across the frontend, backend, database, AI system, and deployment in about three months\. UNFROZEN operates at a reported 97% gross margin and $0\.09 in AI cost per session, with sub\-two\-second production response times enabled in part by EMBER, his custom memory engine\. Hemanth is strongest in translating AI systems into reliable customer outcomes: optimizing retrieval and chunking to address RAG hallucinations, orchestrating LangGraph\-based agent workflows, and operating secure, scalable application infrastructure\. Previously, he spent three years at Chargebee building backend systems for subscription billing at thousands of daily transactions, improving performance, query efficiency, deployment reliability, and production quality\. He holds a master’s degree in Data and AI \(Data Engineering\) from the University of North Texas\. ## Services - JSON Web Token \(JWT\) - Object\-Oriented Programming \(OOP\) - Spring Boot - Systems Design - PostgreSQL - Problem Solving - Database Design - Web Application Development - Tailwind CSS - API Development - Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery \(CI/CD\) - TypeScript - Full\-Stack Development - OpenAI API - Vercel V0 - FastAPI - Supabase - User Authentication - React\.js - Java - Large Language Models \(LLM\) - REST APIs - DSA - Git - Core Java - AI - LLM - REST API - Software Development - Data Analysis and Visualization ## Highlights - Founded and launched UNFROZEN, a profitable AI communication\-coaching SaaS with active paying subscribers\. - Built UNFROZEN solo in about three months, including its frontend, backend, database, AI system, and deployment\. - Operates UNFROZEN at a reported 97% gross margin and $0\.09 in AI cost per session\. - Built EMBER, a custom memory engine that maintains cross\-session coaching context without a vector\-database lookup on every interaction\. - Maintained sub\-two\-second production response times for UNFROZEN\. - Implemented Supabase authentication and row\-level security for user\-data isolation in UNFROZEN\. - Built a seven\-rule coaching prompt system designed to provide feedback grounded in what users actually said\. - Built planner, researcher, executor, and reviewer multi\-agent workflows with LangGraph and FastAPI at Scale AI\. - Reduced task\-orchestration time by 22% in Scale AI client trials\. - Built MCP connectors for secure agent access to internal knowledge bases and external APIs, reducing latency by 15%\. - Optimized PostgreSQL and pgvector RAG retrieval to reach 94% context accuracy in staging\. - Built prompt\-evaluation frameworks that reduced hallucinations by 18%\. - Helped keep enterprise pilot deployments at 99\.9% uptime\. - Built multi\-agent CPA tax\-automation systems with LangGraph and MCP as a design engineer at Scary AI\. - Builds AI agents for CPA tax workflows through contract work at a fintech startup\. - Solved structured\-data RAG hallucination issues through chunking and retrieval optimization\. - Spent three years building production subscription\-billing backend systems at Chargebee for thousands of daily transactions\. - Designed RESTful payment\-workflow APIs in Python, Java, and SQL at Chargebee\. - Improved Chargebee system performance by 30%\. - Helped move Chargebee architecture toward microservices and reusable components, reducing development effort by 26%\. - Optimized PostgreSQL and MySQL queries and indexing strategies, improving query efficiency by 35%\. - Built Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Docker CI/CD pipelines that reduced deployment failures by 32%\. - Introduced automated testing frameworks that raised code coverage above 85%\. - Reduced post\-release production incidents by 27% at Chargebee\. ## Experience - **Founder & Full\-Stack AI Developer at unfrozen\.me** (2026\-01\-01–present) — UNFROZEN started because I kept watching people — including myself — freeze up in moments that mattered\. Interviews, hard conversations, moments where you know exactly what you want to say and it just doesn't come out\. So I built an AI coach for it\. Solo\. Frontend, backend, database, the AI system, deployment — all of it, over about 3 months\. The technical piece I'm most proud of is EMBER, a custom memory engine I built so the AI coach actually remembers you across sessions without the latency hit of a vector database lookup every time\. That's a big part of why response times stay under 2 seconds in production\. I run it on Next\.js and FastAPI, with Supabase handling auth and row\-level security so every user's data stays properly isolated — which sounds simple until you're debugging why one user's session data is leaking policy errors at 1am and you have to redesign part of the architecture mid\-build\. I also spent real time on the prompt engineering side — built a system with 7 specific - **AI Engineer at Scale AI** (2026\-02\-01–2026\-05\-01) — I'm working on multi\-agent AI systems at Scale AI \- the kind of stuff that sounds abstract until you're debugging why your planner agent handed off garbage context to the executor at 11pm\. Built out workflows using LangGraph and FastAPI following a planner → researcher → executor → reviewer pattern, which ended up cutting task orchestration time by 22% in client trials\. Spent a good chunk of time on MCP connectors too \- getting AI agents to securely pull from internal knowledge bases and external APIs without adding latency, which we got down by 15%\. Also went deep on RAG pipeline optimization with PostgreSQL and pgvector \- tuning embedding retrieval until context accuracy hit 94% in staging, which is the difference between an AI agent that's actually useful and one that confidently makes things up\. Built out evaluation frameworks for our prompts too, which helped cut hallucinations by 18%\. Through all of it, we kept enterprise pilot deployments running at 99\.9% uptime \- the unglamoro - **Software Engineer at Chargebee** (2021\-07\-01–2024\-07\-01) — Three years at Chargebee, building the backend that keeps subscription billing running for a platform processing thousands of transactions a day\. Most of my time went into designing RESTful APIs in Python, Java, and SQL for payment workflows — the kind of systems where a bug doesn't just break a feature, it breaks someone's invoice\. Got system performance up 30% and cut response times along the way\. I moved a lot of our architecture toward microservices too, working across distributed teams to build reusable components — that cut development effort by 26% and sped up how fast we could ship releases\. Spent time in the database layer as well, optimizing PostgreSQL and MySQL queries and indexing strategies, which improved query efficiency by 35% and got rid of bottlenecks that were affecting real customer workflows\. Built out CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins, GitHub Actions, and Docker — cut deployment failures by 32%\. And I pushed hard on testing culture, introducing automated frameworks tha ## Education - Master's degree, Data and AI \(Data Engineering\) — University of North Texas (2024\-08\-01–2026\-05\-01) - Bachelor of Technology, Electrical, Electronics and Communications Engineering — Sri Venkateswara College of Engineering, Tirupati (2019\-09\-01–2023\-05\-01) ## FAQ ### What does Hemanth do now?
