Pranav Jayant Kulkarni

I have a strong background in computer science and am always curious to learn new technologies. Since 2024, I have been working as a research assistant in the Digital Energy group at Fraunhofer FIT.  My focus is mainly in the area of modular system development and data spaces technologies.  Previously, I worked at the University of Paderborn after my master's degree. Thanks to my work, I gained experience in fine-tuning generative AI models, designing and developing a database for a digital twin project, co-authoring research papers and guiding students as a supervisor. 

I completed a Master's degree in Computer Science at the University of Paderborn. During my studies, I also worked as a student assistant at the HNI. My work involved deploying and testing ML models on various cloud platforms and tracking them using third-party applications. Before coming to Germany, I was a full-time employee at Zeus Learning in Mumbai, India.  My responsibilities there were mainly in the area of full-stack development.
