Vijay Garg
@vijaygarg
Experienced data scientist specializing in ML, deep learning, and time-series forecasting.
What I'm looking for
I am a data scientist with hands-on experience building machine learning and deep learning solutions for remote sensing, forecasting, and NLP tasks. I hold a Master's in ML/AI and have completed applied certifications and industrial training focused on production-ready models and web-enabled analytics.
In my current role as a Junior Data Scientist I designed a farm-monitoring web application using drone and satellite imagery, developed object-detection pipelines with CNNs, and implemented time-series models (SARIMAX, LSTM, GRU) for solar power and commodity price forecasting. I combine Python development, Flask APIs, cloud services, and geospatial tooling to deliver end-to-end solutions.
I bring prior experience leading teams and operations in telecom and FMCG, which strengthens my ability to translate business problems into technical solutions, drive projects to completion, and collaborate across functions to deliver measurable results.
