About

AI/ML enthusiastic professional with 8+ years of experience spanning applied research, data analysis, and production-oriented technology solutions. Currently a Technology Specialist at Visa where I collaborate with research and innovation teams on GenAI-driven initiatives, data-backed decision systems, and emerging technology intelligence. Holds hands-on experience in Generative AI, NLP, and data-driven systems, and an M.Tech in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (NLP specialization) from BITS Pilani. Strong background in Python-based ML development, statistical modeling, and translating research concepts into scalable, real-world solutions. Seeking to build and deploy production-quality ML systems at scale in Google Ads or similar high-impact environments. My work involves transforming complex ideas into structured, defensible solutions, a skill honed through 8+ years of experience in patent analytics, technical research, and technology evaluation across AI, fintech, and software systems. I recently completed my M.Tech in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning from BITS Pilani, specializing in NLP, deep learning, and modern ML architectures. My academic and hands-on work spans large language models, chatbots, feature engineering, statistical modeling, and end-to-end ML pipelines using Python. I have a strong academic background in computer science, statistics, and mathematics, and I have obtained multiple certifications in python, R language, data structure, core java and software engineering. What differentiates me is my ability to bridge research, data, and real-world impact from analyzing complex technical systems to building scalable AI solutions. I am now seeking Machine Learning Engineer or Data Scientist opportunities where I can work on high-impact problems, production-grade ML systems, and data-driven products at scale.
