Mata Prasad

I am a dedicated Data Scientist and AI/ML Engineer with a strong background in driving company growth through strategic data science initiatives. Currently, I serve as a Senior Analyst in Data Science at American Express, where I have developed models that significantly improved customer retention and merchant recommendations. My work includes creating a kNN-based lookalike model and a BERT-based NLP model, which boosted tracking accuracy by 42%. I also contributed to predictive analytics, enhancing model performance by 31% through extensive feature engineering.

Prior to American Express, I worked at Sustlabs, an IIT Bombay incubated startup, where I implemented WaveNet for appliance detection, achieving 90% accuracy. My technical expertise includes Python, SQL, PyTorch, and various data frameworks. I hold a B.Tech in Production & Industrial Engineering from IIT Delhi and have completed courses in machine learning and deep learning from Udemy and Coursera.

I am passionate about leveraging AI for impactful solutions, as seen in my projects like the Medical Encyclopedia QA System and the BioTech Drug Analysis AI Agent. These projects showcase my ability to integrate advanced models and frameworks to deliver innovative solutions.
