About

I'm Vikram BM, currently the Principal AI Engineer at UserCue, where I lead our efforts in market research automation. My journey has taken me from software engineering at IBM and YC-backed BIK to deep-diving into AI research at Arizona State University, where I maintained a 4.0 GPA while building multi-model agent architectures. I'm passionate about taking products from 0 to 1, a skill I honed as a Founding AI Engineer at Sinatra. I truly believe that when passion meets hard work, you become unyielding. I'm always looking to connect with teams pushing the boundaries of what's possible with LLMs and autonomous agents to solve real-world problems. Whether it's discussing RAG, multi-agent frameworks, or the startup ecosystem, I'm eager to share what I've learned and explore how we can add value to each other's work.
