Rajat Sharma — AI Researcher
I am a Lead Data Scientist with 6+ years of experience in developing and deploying real-time ML models and large-scale production infrastructure, optimizing systems that handle millions of transactions. I specialize in Python, Statistics, Machine Learning algorithms, and model optimization, focusing on data-driven decision-making and business impact. At Gojek, I work with business teams to understand challenges and develop data science solutions, from analyzing problems to building ML models. I manage the productisation phase, designing ETL and training pipelines, and delivering final outputs as APIs. I focus on continuously improving the performance and robustness of our ML systems. I refined the driver allocation model, increasing Booking Completion Rate (BCR) by 5-10% and impacting ~2M drivers. I also designed and conducted large-scale A/B testing, evaluating ML-driven strategies to improve system efficiency and reliability. Previously, at ZS Associates, I built and deployed ML solutions for large B2B businesses, including a lead prioritization system for Microsoft that drove $50M+ in revenue. I also developed production-ready Python pipelines for real-time ML deployment and optimized decision-making models using XGBoost, Random Forest, and NLP techniques. I hold an M.Tech in Machine Intelligence from DA-IICT, where I worked on deep learning projects for image and text classification. I have earned certifications in deep learning, computer vision, and financial modeling, strengthening my expertise in data science, statistical analysis, A/B testing, and ML algorithms. I am passionate about building scalable ML systems and leveraging data-driven insights to solve real-world problems.
