Senior Data Scientist
Head Digital Works (Cricket.com)
02.2020 - 07.2023
Implemented algorithms to calculate teams, players ratings and some interesting features on the app like recent form of the player, best matchups using clustering algorithms, most impactful player in the match
Built regression models to get team level projections before and during the match for different formats like T20, ODI. All the processes are automated and runs on AWS EC2 instance
Ran campaigns on CT to improve user Engagement
The objective of the product is to show case the cricket in different perspective to users by taking the insights from the ML models and analysis. Hence increase the user engagement and provide some takeaways from the analysis to the teams directly, in a long run

Senior Data Scientist
Affine Analytics – Bangalore
07.2017 - 01.2020
Built promo recommendation system improving campaign. Used KNN to get propensity of consumers to buy from various categories and predicted Average order value (AOV) using RF- regression model, at user-promo level and assign offers for every user based on the AOV rank and business rules
Tested state of art model using Bi-directional LSTM and attention layers to get machine generated SQL query given the generalized question and schema of the data. Used WikiSQL data to train the model.
Predict the possibility of Law Suits from quarterly call records of publicly listed companies using NLP features. Mainly worked on data pre-processing and extracted features from unstructured text files to identify complexity, modality, sentiment using python packages and financial dictionaries. Used PCA for dimension reduction and build binary classification model using XGBOOST to predict the events
Implemented deep learning architecture (PSPNet) to identify the type of land scape in the vicinity of a given geo-location to assess the risk from any Natural or Man-made disaster. Worked mainly on pre-processing, augmenting images and fine tuning the model and performed out sample validation using metric such as precision, recall and intersection over union
