Data Scientist who delivers secure, reliable products—turning data, software, and IT operations into measurable outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Data Scientist with 3 years of experience spanning IT and software development, with a strong focus on user rights administration, service desk management, and infrastructure security. I bring systematic problem-solving and careful attention to detail to every task, from triaging requests to improving operational reliability.
I’ve built and maintained Django-based web applications and school management systems using PHP and MySQL, including fixing production bugs and integrating frontend and backend components. I also designed relational databases with MySQL and SQLite and worked in collaborative GitHub workflows to support smooth SDLC delivery.
In IT support roles, I processed 50+ user access requests with accurate privilege assignment and resolved 100+ support tickets while consistently meeting defined SLAs. I’ve strengthened network security and storage best practices through hands-on training and earned multiple security certifications, using that experience to improve team knowledge sharing and end-user satisfaction.
