RELEVANT ACADEMIC DATA SCIENCE PROJECTS
SQL – Constructed a Database model for a car manufacturer (VCU: Database Management Systems)
• Utilizing SQL designed a database for a car manufacturer company to record data for suppliers and dealerships.
• Created tables and mapped relationships inserted data and executed queries with a team of 3. R - Project: Perception of People towards Online Media (Christ Deemed to Be University, R Programming)
• Used concepts of Multiple Linear Regression and Chi-Square Test for independence to analyze the perception of people towards online news media.
Python- Project: Optimally allocated seats to employees at Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond in the Richmond facility so as to improve productivity.
• Used the Assignment algorithm approach and formulated an objective function and constraints involving employees.
• Found the optimal solution that minimized the cost of movement of employees, such that employees of the same team could be seated near each other maximizing productivity. RELEVANT EXPERIENCE
Mu-Sigma- Data Consultants, Bangalore, IN (Internship) April 2019 – May 2019 Decision Scientist Trainee
Responsibilities:
• Solved business problems using MECE trees and subsequently extracting the required data using ETL tools within Hadoop’s ecosystem and performed data cleaning and data manipulation using PySpark/HIVE and lastly formulating and testing the appropriately constructed hypothesis.
• Responsible for creating Entity-Relationship diagrams and accordingly writing DDL leveraging constraints in the relationships using MySQL. Experience in writing procedures and functions using MySQL, PostgreSQL.
• Responsible for presenting customer preferences in a graphical format using Bubble Charts, Donut Charts, Gantt Chart, Bullet chart, Box and Whisker Plot and other visualization methods using Tableau and the ggplot2 and esquisse packages in R.
• Post completion of the internship received a PPO. Jones Lang Lasalle (JLL) – Fortune 500 company- Bangalore, IN Sept 2017 –Apr 2018 Tech Lead
Responsibilities:
• Involved in facilitating operational initiatives as per JLL standards across six site locations such as delamping, building and implementing HVAC runtime schedule, UPS optimization etc
• Built forecasting models based on times series data of electricity consumption across 6 site locations. Evaluated the performance of the models based on MAPE. Have constructed models by using the following methods ARIMA, ARMA, MA(monthly, quarterly, half-yearly and annually), Simple exponential smoothing, Holt’s exponential smoothing method, Damped and Naïve Forecasting using Excel and R programming. Subsequently, isolated the seasonality factor using R and Excel.
• Predicted next month’s load as a function of the derived model(with least MAPE) and coordinated with local electricity provider and specified the required tariff slab.
• Improved efficiency by 20 % by using prescribed electric methods. Sterling & Wilson, Bangalore, IN June 2016 – Sept 2017 Tech Lead
Responsibilities:
• Testing and commissioning of transformers, HT panels, LT panels, current transformers, potential transformers.
• Tabulated data of all observations made on electric equipment.
