About

In a career spanning 7+ years, Prabhjyot has journeyed across a wide variety of functions, from managing Floor Operations to using Data Science skills for Process and Demand Optimisation. Prabhjyot is currently working as a Sr. Data Scientist in an Indian MNC - UPL which is a Global Leader in Agricultural Solutions and he has managed operations for over 3.5+ years with India's 2nd largest Oil & Gas Refiner/Retailer, BPCL (PSU, Maharatna). Prabhjyot holds technical bent of mind, as well as hands on experience in MS Azure - Databricks/ML Studio/Blob Storage, Python Language, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, SQL, libraries such as tensorflow 2.0, scikit-learn, PyCaret, PySpark, pandas, seaborn, numpy, scipy, matplotlib, plotly etc. Prabhjyot has worked in a 3-shift rotating duty with utmost commitment to his role and the organisation, especially considering the high-risk nature of Oil & Gas operations. He has faced and handled countless situations where quick thinking and sound decisions were required. During CoronaVirus Pandemic, Prabhjyot has volunteered as a Corona Warrior and evacuated 1.1 Million Metric Tons of fuel during the 3-month Covid-19 lockdown, in spite of less than 1/3rd of mandated operator workforce, thus augmenting Government of India's efforts to sustain fuel production and delivery to the whole Country. When not at work, Prabhjyot loves to spend time with his family, go on trips with friends and learn something new.
