Highly motivated Data Engineer with passion for Data Engineering/Machine Learning/AnalyticsI am currently working on big data technologies to build and manage pipelines for ad network and exchange that handles billions of events end to end. Previously worked on building data pipeline using Spark for IP address. In my internship I worked on using machine learning techniques for Statistical Modeling on credit card transaction data for offer targeting, user segmentation on large scale.+----------------------+----------------------------------+| Cloud Platform ---> AWS | Storage ---> HDFS, S3 | DB ---> DynamoDB, MySQL, HIVE, Redis | Batch Compute Engine ---> Hive (MR, Tez), Spark | Querying ---> Presto (adhoc), HIVE | Language ---> Python, Java | Machine Learning ---> SageMaker (Scikit, TF etc..) | Workflow Manager ---> Airflow | Analysis / Visualization ---> Zeppelin, Superset, Tableau | Monitoring / Altering ---> Datadog, Pagerduty, Pepperdata +----------------------+----------------------------------+I have completed my Master in Computer Science at University of Illinois at Chicago with focus on Big data, Data Analysis and Machine Learning.

Jun 2013 - Dec 2013

Offer Targeting:1. Analyzed millions of user’s credit/debit card transactions across hundreds of merchants/categories for advertisement targeting.2. Worked on recommendation engine algorithms to create user-based targeting model to predict the offer’s likelihood for a user.3. Wrote many Map-Reduce jobs in Java and Python (Hadoop Streaming) to create features from the raw transactions.4. Used HIVE on transaction data to perform preprocessing operations such as aggregation, filtering and join.5. Used machine learning libraries such as Mahout, Sklearn to build and continuously optimize the model.User Segmentation and Association:1. Analyzed the user’s spending data across different Categories/Merchants and created features, to do user segmentation by using clustering algorithms.2. Worked on association mining to generate rules for merchants based on measures such as lift, confidence and support.3. Used Tableau to do the reporting and visual analysis of data.
