Associate Data Scientist at Jio Platforms Limited (2022-12 – Present)
Actively contributed to end-to-end data science projects from problem formulation and EDA to model development and production deployment across industrial AI use cases.
- Designed and deployed a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline for semantic search and document understanding, enabling accurate information extraction and validation from valve equipment design documents; reduced manual effort and improved processing efficiency by 20%.
- Performed exploratory data analysis (EDA) on operational datasets to identify patterns, anomalies, and key drivers impacting system performance.
- Developed time-series forecasting models (LSTM with attention) to predict gas production, supporting data-driven operational planning.
- Built real-time anomaly detection system for pump signals using feature engineering, Symbolic Aggregate Approximation, and HDBSCAN clustering.
- Developed computer vision models (YOLO v5/v8) for PPE detection and object tracking; optimized for edge deployment with hardware acceleration.
- Built and deployed backend APIs for ML inference; containerized applications using Docker and integrated CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for automated build, test, and deployment.
- Implemented MLflow for experiment tracking and model versioning, ensuring reproducibility and efficient model lifecycle management.
- Automated email and document data extraction pipelines, achieving less than 2 % error rate and reducing manual processing time by 60%.
Energy Analyst – Oil & Gas (Upstream) at GlobalData (2021-02 – 2022-11)
- Conducted data analysis and forecasting for upstream oil & gas production and CAPEX using Python.
- Performed EDA and statistical analysis on large-scale upstream datasets across Middle East and Africa regions.
- Built data pipelines and web scraping systems for real-time ingestion of market and operational data.
- Generated insights and reports to support strategic and commercial decision-making.
Assistant Professor (Contract) at JNTU Kakinada (2017-07 – 2021-01)
- Taught petroleum engineering courses and mentored students on analytical and technical problem-solving.
