PakistanWhat I'm looking for
As a data scientist with extensive experience in machine learning and data engineering, I have successfully developed and deployed advanced models that drive significant business value. At Securiti, I built a CNN-based header row detection model that achieved 96% classification accuracy, demonstrating my ability to leverage cutting-edge technologies to solve complex problems.
During my tenure at Afiniti Software Solutions, I optimized call routing using machine learning, generating over $1 million in monthly revenue. My passion for data-driven decision-making is evident in my work, where I have automated ML pipelines and trained teams to enhance project efficiency. I thrive in collaborative environments and am committed to continuous learning and improvement.
