Work Experience

AI/ML Engineer at Mastercard
July 1, 2025 - Present
Designed a PyTorch-based multi-modal anomaly detection system for global payment networks, improving fraud detection accuracy by 26%. Built a real-time streaming pipeline using Apache Spark to ingest and process high-volume transaction events for sub-second anomaly scoring on 2M+ transactions/day under strict latency constraints. Developed ML models for system-level anomaly detection across transaction, merchant, and device behavioral signals. Implemented LLM-powered feature extraction workflows using OpenAI APIs and LangChain to transform unstructured transaction logs and dispute narratives into structured fraud signals, reducing manual investigation effort by 38%. Engineered embedding-based similarity search pipelines for hidden fraud relationship detection, improving recall by 32%. Deployed scalable inference services with FastAPI, Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS achieving 99.9% uptime and sub-180ms latency. Assisted in building agentic AI workflows with LangChain to generate contextual
Machine Learning Scientist at Wells Fargo
October 1, 2024 - June 30, 2025
Built an NLP-based customer support intelligence system using Python and Hugging Face Transformers (BERT) to classify and route chat/email queries into intent categories, improving intent detection accuracy by 24%. Created supervised text classification and sentiment analysis models using transformer embeddings and traditional ML classifiers to prioritize high-impact tickets, reducing manual triage effort by 35%. Implemented a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipeline using enterprise knowledge base embeddings and vector search to reduce incorrect support resolutions by 28%. Developed LLM-based query understanding workflows using prompt engineering to enhance intent extraction and domain-specific response accuracy, improving chatbot performance by 30%. Architected scalable FastAPI microservices for production NLP model deployment supporting 5,000+ requests/min under <200ms latency. Established real-time streaming pipelines with Apache Kafka for continuous data flow into ML systems
Machine Learning Engineer at Accenture
April 1, 2021 - July 31, 2023
Built a Python-based recommendation system using PyTorch/TensorFlow with Scikit-learn collaborative filtering on SQL-based user behavioral datasets (clickstream, purchase history, search logs), improving recommendation relevance by 28%. Developed hybrid models combining supervised ranking (XGBoost, Random Forest) with unsupervised clustering (K-Means) for user segmentation, increasing CTR by 22% across e-commerce platforms. Created AWS-based scalable ML pipelines using S3, Lambda, and SageMaker integrated with Pandas ETL workflows, enabling automated training/batch inference/retraining cycles and reducing retraining time by 40%. Applied NLP techniques using TF-IDF and deep embeddings for semantic matching between user queries and product catalog metadata. Orchestrated large-scale feature engineering pipelines using Pandas and NumPy to capture behavioral signals, improving model performance by 18%. Produced Power BI dashboards for KPI tracking, increasing engagement by 12%. Implemented
