Work Experience

AI Engineer at Anblicks
February 1, 2025 - Present
Developed a hybrid recommendation system integrating collaborative filtering, content-based filtering, deep autoencoder networks, and large language models, driving a 15% increase in sales and significantly improving customer engagement. Architected end-to-end AI pipelines including data ingestion, cleaning, and feature engineering with Python (Pandas, NumPy) and SQL. Engineered and optimized deep learning models (autoencoders) and LLM-based personalization layers, achieving 92%+ accuracy in user preference prediction through cross-validation and Bayesian hyperparameter tuning. Automated model training and serverless deployment with AWS SageMaker, Lambda, and Amazon Redshift, enabling scalable, low-latency inference in production. Built CI/CD pipelines with Docker and GitHub Actions for efficient model updates, and integrated AWS CloudWatch and Prometheus for real-time monitoring and automated retraining.
Data Scientist Intern at Zillow
December 1, 2024 - October 8, 2025
Collected and curated dataset of over 10,000 properties, integrating features such as location, size, and amenities to improve model accuracy by 15%. Preprocessed and cleaned the dataset, handling missing values through imputation and performing feature engineering that increased predictive power by 20%, visualized relationships with Matplotlib and Seaborn to inform model selection and feature importance, leading to a 30% reduction in model training time. Split the dataset into training and validation sets, achieving a training accuracy of 85% on initial models. Trained multiple algorithms (Linear Regression, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, SVR) and evaluated with RMSE and R², resulting in a model ensemble that improved prediction accuracy by 25%.
Machine Learning Engineer at Magna Info Tech
December 1, 2022 - October 8, 2025
Developed a predictive model using ML (Linear Regression, Random Forest, XGBoost, LightGBM) and DL (MLPs, RNNs) on a dataset of 10,000+ features to forecast property sale prices. Executed data preprocessing, including handling 5% missing data via imputation, normalization, and NLP techniques (tokenization, stemming, lemmatization, sentiment analysis) on real estate text data from Zillow and Realtor.com. Designed and implemented scalable ETL pipelines to extract, transform, and load heterogeneous real estate data from multiple sources into structured formats. Applied feature selection methods like Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) and PCA to optimize model efficiency and performance. Conducted A/B testing and cross-validation to evaluate and compare algorithms, driving data-driven decisions for the best-performing predictive solution.
