About

I have 5+ years of experience working on large scale machine-learning systems and data analysis tasks (AutoML platform, Big Data, Recommender systems, Time series analysis, Representation learning, Computer Vision) in various environments including academic research, as well as industry. I love to build end to end systems/services that solve real world engineering problems. In the past, I have published my work at top conferences in Machine Learning like NeurIPS. I have authored several patents as well.
