Hi Jenkins team and Org Admins,
My name is Ara Yeroyan, and I am highly interested in volunteering as a mentor for GSoC 2026.
I was reviewing the 2026 project ideas and noticed the proposals for “AI Chatbot to Guide User Workflow” and “Continue AI-Powered Chatbot for Quick Access to Jenkins Resources”. My day-to-day enterprise work directly aligns with the goals of these projects. I specialize in designing and deploying production-grade, multi-agent LLM chatbots and RAG systems. I have deep experience building these systems from the ground up, optimizing LLM inference, and setting up rigorous LLM evaluation pipelines (which I believe will be crucial for the 175-350 hour scopes of these projects).
I can provide strong mentorship in:
-
LLM Integration and AI Architecture
-
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)
-
Natural Language Processing (NLP)
I believe my enterprise AI background could help guide the student toward building a robust, production-ready chatbot for the Jenkins community.

Please let me know what the next steps are, or if there is a specific Google form I need to fill out to be officially considered.
Best regards,
Ara Yeroyan
