What I'm looking for

I am seeking a dynamic role where I can leverage my data science skills to drive impactful projects, collaborate with innovative teams, and contribute to meaningful solutions in a supportive and growth-oriented environment.

I'm Kiran Thorat, a passionate data scientist with a strong foundation in machine learning, data analysis, and big data technologies. My academic journey includes a Post Graduate Diploma in Big Data Analytics from CDAC, Pune, where I honed my skills in practical machine learning and database management systems. I also hold a Bachelor of Engineering in Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering from Savitribai Phule Pune University, where I developed a keen interest in Python and deep learning.

Throughout my internships, I have successfully implemented various AI and machine learning projects, including sentiment analysis pipelines and AI-driven chatbots. My experience with tools like PySpark, Tableau, and AWS has enabled me to create data pipelines and dashboards that facilitate informed decision-making. I am particularly proud of my work on the Smart Agro Advisor project, which utilized machine learning to assist farmers in making data-driven agricultural decisions.
