At Purple Pay, we are building payments stack to move money seamlessly across the world using DLT. Previously, at CachePrep, India's first audio-based interview preparation platform, we were helping people prepare for job interviews across multiple domains (Data Science, Product Management). Formerly, as Data Scientist, I have worked on building AI-based solutions for India. I have helped solve some of the most critical challenges of accessibility and affordability through technology-driven solutions through global and national award winning AI-based products (WSA-2021, 10th Aegis Graham Bell). I have worked on projects involving data manipulation and visualization (Pandas, Numpy, Matplotlib), web scraping (BeautifulSoup, Scrapy), NLP (using NLTK, sklearn) and image processing (Pytesseract, OpenCV). I am proficient in Python with good command of R and working knowledge of SQL. Solving problems using a data-driven approach with in-depth research, analytics and logical thinking is my forte. I am relentless in my efforts to overcome obstacles and accomplish strategic initiatives through rapid execution. Studying as an Electrical Engineer from IIT(BHU) with some of the best minds in the country made me better and driven - personally and profesisonally. A routine lecture in college introduced me to the power of Gaussian distribution and I was hooked. Being an outlier never felt this good! Being a tech buff, I read extensively on the current affairs and technological advancements especially in the field of Machine Learning, Blockchain and Augmented Reality. I am a Taekwondo player and a compulsive biker, both of which are akin to meditation for me. Reach out to me here if you are looking for someone who loves solving complex problems requiring intellectual rigour and intuition. If not, call me up for weekend rides out of the town and interesting conversations where we can agree to disagree.
