Experience
Data Scientist, GE Transport(WABTEC Corporation) [July 2023-present]
• Led end-to-end model development projects, starting from data collection of locomotive defects using SQL queries, through data exploration
and filtering, to analysis of underlying defect causes and patterns.
• Implemented machine learning strategies, including AutoML, to develop predictive models for defect detection and classification, contributing
to improved maintenance practices.
• Utilized algorithms such as Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, and Neural Networks for defect prediction, achieving higher capture rates.
• Employed data visualization techniques using tools like Matplotlib and Seaborn to present insights and model results to stakeholders, facilitating
data-driven decision-making processes.
• Spearheaded machine vision modeling projects, overseeing the entire pipeline from retrieving site images to generating synthetic data for en-
hanced model training.
• Engaged in annotation and labeling tasks to prepare annotated datasets for machine vision model training, ensuring high-quality input data for
accurate model predictions.
• Developed deep learning models, including Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for image classification and object detection tasks, enhanc-
ing model performance and accuracy.
• Collaborated with cross-functional teams to integrate machine learning solutions, improving operational efficiency.
