Work History

National Australia Bank

Senior Data Scientist, Marketing Data Science
05.2023 - Current

Designed and implemented data-driven marketing campaigns through Digital Notification channel

Personal Loan Model

  • Built propensity model using spending data, events data etc to Identify customers who have higher conversion of taking personal loan
  • Achieved the ROC value of 0.82 on Out of time dataset using LightGBM
  • 414k+ audience reached with acceptance rate of 4.6% and 10k customers took loan through campaign annually

Balance Growth and Retention Model

  • Developed a predictive model to identify potential depositors, enhancing deposit growth and customer retention for the bank.
  • Identify key indicators such as transaction patterns, income levels, tenure and Credit card limit value to score customers on their likelihood to increase deposits.
  • Targeted around >500k high potential customers through incentive driven campaign and increase in deposits to $50M from the campaign



Girnarsoft, Leading Second Hand Cars Venture

Senior Machine Learning Engineer
02.2021 - 05.2023

Pricing Engine

  • Built the dynamic pricing system for buying a used car based on car features, inspection report and demand-supply in the market
  • Trained the regression model using Neural Network architecture and predicted the depreciation of a car from its new car price
  • Achieved MAPE of 5%; Devised the method to give confidence on the predictions
  • Exposed the model through flask API

Name Entity Extraction from Documents

  • Built the Name Entity Recognition model to extract information such as Name, Father Name, Engine Number, Address etc from documents such as PAN Card, Aadhar, RC and Cheque
  • Used RASA which is open source machine learning framework for chatbots to build the model
  • Achieved precision and recall above 85% for almost all of the entities
  • AWS Textract was used to convert image to text.

Recommendation Engine

  • Recommending dealers to get them on the platform to auction on a used car
  • Sequential features were developed by taking last 6 months of participation history of the dealer
  • Deep Learning model was trained by creating positive and negative samples.


QC automation using Computer vision

  • Trained Yolov3 model to mask vehicle number plate.
  • Accepting and Rejecting images based on text or person present inside car boundary; Boundary box of person, vehicle and text are determined by Yolov5 and AWS rekognition API respectively
  • Built image classification model to determine Color, Make and Model of a car with Inceptionv3

Personalisation Engine

  • Built personalization engine to sort listed used cars based on user preferences.
  • Engines comprises of two scores - One score is based on user browsing history (what car user has seen), other score related to car performance in terms of its views and leads
  • Engines runs on more than 30k cars and its API gives response within 250 ms

Mobikwik, Digital Wallet With Recharge and Bill Payment

Senior Data Scientist, Central Data Team
10.2018 - 07.2019

Lending Model

  • Built SMS based credit scoring model for a small ticket size loan distribution and predict probability of default;
  • Used Extreme Gradient Boosting for training the model to predict probability of default;
  • Carried out feature selection for the model to get final 42 features out of more than 200 predictors.
  • Wrote complex SQL queries for feature extraction and data processing.
  • Deployed the model by building API using Flask and processed 14,000 to 20,000 applications on daily basis

Wallet Model

  • Developed credit scoring model using transaction data of a user collected from Mobikwik App; Applied Gradient boosting to predict the probability of default.
  • Formulated UDFs in Hive and Pyspark to prepare data set for the training of the loan distribution model for 10 million users.

Data Scientist, Department of Data Science
06.2017 - 10.2018

Supply Chain Optimization Tool

  • Solved a constraint optimization problem of demand and supply using Pyomo and glpk solver by maximizing utilization of dispatching trucks.

<b>Delhivery</b>, <i>a third-party logistics service provider in India</i>

Manager, Line Haul
08.2015 - 05.2017

Relay Model

  • Business Problem: Addressed the existing inefficient way of material transportation on long hauls by converting two driver system in a truck to a unique relay model to significantly enhance miles covered per day.
  • Algorithm: Formulated greedy algorithm to create the relay model for Long Haul Transportation in Python to optimize the schedule of drivers that involved minimizing idle time of the drivers
  • Result: Optimal number of drivers and life cycle of every driver required to run the model.
