Engineering LLM evaluation infrastructure for a Microsoft frontier-model program at Quess Corp

GitHub

01 · About

Evidence over opinion. Boring infrastructure.

Software engineer with 2+ years of experience shipping full-stack products on Node, Next.js and AWS, and the last year on LLM evaluation: engineering the code-migration harness behind a Microsoft frontier-model program, designing rubrics and the platforms that score them. B.Tech CSE at Galgotias University (9.4 CGPA), graduating 2026.

How I work

Evidence over opinion

Every judgement gets a rationale. Scores without reasons are noise.

Boring infrastructure

ALB + ASG + a pipeline that deploys on push. Clever infra is a liability at 2 am.

Types at the boundary

Validate inputs once, trust them everywhere. TypeScript end to end.

Ship, then harden

Get the fuzzy version in front of people, then make it reliable and fast.

Measure before optimising

Profile first, then fix the slowest thing. Latency 1.86s to 1.2s came from numbers, not guesses.

Own the outcome

From empty repo to production and post-launch support. If it is live, it is mine to keep healthy.

Engineered the evaluation infrastructure behind a Microsoft frontier-model program, deployed with client Ethara AI: the code-migration harness, the Docker-based execution layer, SFT data pipelines and the graders that decide what reaches post-training.

  • Architected and owned an end-to-end code-migration evaluation harness for a Microsoft frontier-model program, extending the RepoTransBench research benchmark into a production evaluation workflow adopted by the tasking team.
  • Engineered 1,200+ multi-architecture Docker images (amd64, arm64) across 16 programming languages for LLM evaluation infrastructure, parallelised builds with Docker BuildKit and published to AWS ECR for high-throughput evaluation.
  • Built an end-to-end Python data pipeline generating a Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) dataset for a frontier coding model: mined bounty-linked GitHub issues, filtered issue-resolving pull requests, extracted verified fix and test patches, and produced structured JSONL ground-truth instances across 16 languages.
  • Designed a registry-driven evaluation harness with per-repository build, dependency and test configurations for 50+ open-source projects (Redis, curl, systemd, Valkey, DiceDB), enabling deterministic, automated scoring of LLM-generated patches in isolated containers.
  • Owned grading and output verification: produced specification-compliant output bundles and agent trajectories, audited every sample end to end, and ran binary-rubric and side-by-side (SxS) evaluations against GPT-5.2 and Gemini-3 Pro, delivering structured JSON reports used in post-training analysis.

For each project: the problem, what I built and what changed.

Product

SafeReport

AI-powered anonymous crime reporting platform

Problem
Reporting an incident is slow, intimidating and rarely anonymous. People give up before the report is filed.
Outcome
A complete report in under a minute, tracked until it is resolved, with the reporter's identity never stored.
What I built
  • Gemini-powered incident analysis that classifies the report, extracts key facts and drafts the structured report automatically.
  • Real-time geolocation with Google Maps so the exact location is captured without typing an address.
  • End-to-end encryption for sensitive fields, JWT authentication and rate limiting to protect reporters and the platform.
  • Prisma schema on NeonDB tuned with indexes and query patterns to handle 10,000+ concurrent report submissions.

LLM Evaluation Platform

The system a team used to decide which model is actually better

Problem
Comparing LLMs by vibes does not scale. The team needed repeatable, auditable scores across static datasets, live API runs and multi-turn conversations.
Outcome
Model decisions moved from opinion to evidence: every score has a rationale, every run is reproducible.

Production-grade Backend

Typed Node/Express API with a real CI/CD path to AWS

Problem
Most starter backends stop at `npm run dev`. This one ships.
Outcome
Push to main, live on EC2 a few minutes later. Used as the base for my own services.

Problem
Deployment tutorials either stop at 'it works on EC2' or assume you already run Kubernetes.

Grade a PR the way I do.

At Quess Corp I score coding-model outputs with task-specific binary rubrics, weighted toward correctness, then compare side by side. Here is a tiny real-style example. Grade it, then see my scoring and why.

TaskReturn the last N orders for a user, newest first. Default N to 10.
// orders.ts
−export async function recentOrders(userId: string, n: number) {
− const orders = await db.order.findMany({ where: { userId } });
− return orders.slice(0, n);
+export async function recentOrders(userId: string, n = 10) {
+ const orders = await db.order.findMany({
+ where: { userId },
+ orderBy: { createdAt: "asc" },
+ take: n,
+ });
+ return orders;
}

Model's own summary of the change

“Moved sorting and limiting into the database query, added a default limit of 10 and newest-first ordering.”

Binary rubric · 100 pts

50% correctness-weighted
  • Correctness · 30 pts

    Orders come back newest first.

  • Correctness · 20 pts

    Limiting happens in the database, not in memory.

  • Code quality · 15 pts

    Default parameter and query shape are idiomatic Prisma.

  • Behavioural reasoning · 15 pts

    Handles edge input (n <= 0, very large n) sensibly.

  • Summary accuracy · 20 pts

    The model's summary matches what the diff actually does.
