EXPERIENCE
iCardio, Los Angeles, CA — Machine Learning Engineer March 2022 - PRESENT
● Extensively used deep learning frameworks like TensorFlow and PyTorch to develop state-of-the-art ML models like transformers, CNNs, and custom video-tailored models from research papers
● Implemented machine learning models, increasing the AUROC from the previous binary classification model by up to 10% for some of the diseases
● Collaborated with the senior Machine Learning Engineer to Develop and maintain a data processing to model training pipeline using ClearML and GCP
● Performed model training on a lot of data and different architectures
● Collaborated with backend engineers to deploy machine learning models and Python APIs on AWS and GCP using Kubernetes
SingularityNet, Amsterdam, Netherlands — Machine Learning Engineer May 2021 - August 2022
● Developed and deployed the reputation system API on AWS. worked collaboratively with the team
● By starting with a couple of research papers from the singularityNet, I converted Python code from the research papers into a REST API using the Django REST framework and collaborated with the authors and coauthors of the research papers to develop and implement machine learning simulations. (Reference Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.07342)
Upwork — Machine Learning Engineer, Backend Engineer and Devops August 2020 - Present
● Freelanced on various machine learning and backend projects, consistently receiving high ratings and repeat business.
