AI engineer in Kolkata
Kolkata customers often ask in Bengali, sometimes typed in English letters, and expect an answer that sounds natural. I build AI assistants and workflows that handle English, Bengali and Hindi, answer from your approved documents and pass enquiries to your staff. I work remotely from India, and Bengali is my own first language, so I can read the answers myself. The models are Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini, and each build is tested before launch.
Based in India and working remotely: no office in Kolkata, and video calls at times that suit you. Kolkata and I are both on UTC+5:30, so there is no time-zone difference and the working day overlaps in full. Many Kolkata offices, schools and clinics work Monday to Saturday, and some corporates Monday to Friday; calls are set around your pattern, including the long Durga Puja holiday period when many businesses slow down.
AI engineering and AI-powered software for Kolkata businesses
Bengali brings a detail that many AI projects ignore: register. The formal apni and the familiar tumi change how a school, a nursing home or a bank-adjacent business sounds, and a bot that slips between them feels careless. I fix the register in the instructions, usually the formal one, and write a test set in three forms: Bengali script, Bengali typed in Roman letters, and English. I read the failures myself and mark ones that are technically right but wrongly toned. The same discipline helps Hindi replies for customers from Burrabazar and the wider trading community, who often write in Hindi.
The Kolkata calendar shapes what an assistant must know. Durga Puja closes shops and clinics for days, wedding months fill banquet halls, and school admissions open and close on fixed dates. A notice that is true in September and false in November is a classic fault, so every dated fact in the knowledge base carries an end date, and the assistant stops using it afterwards and falls back to a handover. For a banquet hall near Park Street or a caterer in Ballygunge, it answers menu and capacity questions, takes a date and guest count, and passes the booking request to the owner without promising availability.
Nursing homes and clinics in Ballygunge and Salt Lake need appointment and timing answers, with any symptom question redirected to a doctor, in keeping with the ASCI code and the 1954 Drugs and Magic Remedies Act. Institutes ask for admission assistants that give dates and documents without promising results. Student and patient details fall under the DPDP Act 2023. My diploma was earned at a Kolkata institute, but I do not live in the city and have no office there. We share UTC+5:30, work by video call and WhatsApp, and meet in person only if you arrange it.
Working with a remote specialist from Kolkata
- Time zone
- Kolkata and I are both on UTC+5:30, so there is no time-zone difference and the working day overlaps in full. Many Kolkata offices, schools and clinics work Monday to Saturday, and some corporates Monday to Friday; calls are set around your pattern, including the long Durga Puja holiday period when many businesses slow down.
- How projects there are usually paid
- Kolkata businesses mostly pay by NEFT, RTGS or cheque to a bank account, with UPI for smaller sums. Traders and companies expect a GST invoice with the supplier's GSTIN, and some deduct TDS, so I suggest settling invoicing details in the quote. Local currency: INR.
- Languages
- English, Bengali, Hindi
- Rules that apply
- The Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 applies to student and patient data collected on enquiry forms, so purpose and consent should be stated clearly.

AI engineer in Kolkata: questions
Yes. I fix the register in the instructions, usually the formal form, and read the test answers myself in Bengali, since Bengali is my first language, to catch wrong tone.
Mostly, and I test it in script, Roman letters and English, because spellings vary from person to person. Words it misreads are added to the test set and fixed.
Each dated fact carries an end date. After it passes, the assistant stops using it and hands the question to a person instead of repeating an out-of-date answer.
It can take the date and guest count and send them to the owner, but confirming availability stays with a person so the hall is never double-booked by a chatbot.
No. I build applications on top of established models such as Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini through their APIs. The engineering is in the content, retrieval, integrations and testing, which is where most business results come from.
I restrict it to approved documents, require it to say when the answer is not there, hand uncertain questions to a person and test it with a fixed set of awkward questions after every change. This reduces invented answers; it cannot remove them entirely.
Yes. Bengali is my native language, along with fluent Hindi and professional English, so I can discuss the project and write or edit Bengali page and ad copy myself.
