Data scientist with 4+ years building and deploying ML solutions that drive measurable impact.
What I'm looking for
I am a data science professional with over four years of experience developing, optimizing, and deploying machine learning and statistical models to solve complex, real-world problems. I have improved algorithmic efficiency, increased model performance, and delivered production-ready solutions across domains such as aerospace and agriculture, using Python, MATLAB, and modern ML frameworks.
My work spans end-to-end ML lifecycle tasks including data cleaning, feature engineering, model evaluation, CI/CD for deployment, and domain-specific model design like ResUNet for satellite imagery and NSGA-II for multi-objective optimization. I collaborate effectively with multidisciplinary teams to translate business requirements into actionable insights and scalable systems.
