At Indeed, I worked with the Trust and Safety Engineering Data Insights team. I worked on updating critical fraud detection models with new features and push it to production. My new model achieved a 0.02 point increase in AUC, and reported an increase in recall in preliminary tests. Along the way, I worked on updating several data engineering pipeline infra tech debts which I encountered such as speeding up the data extraction pipeline by almost 75%.

Github: Covid_QA_Analysis

Performed critical analysis on extractive question answering task by fine-tuning Covid-QA dataset on various transformer models such as BERT, RoBERTa, ALBERT, DistilBERT, and ELECTRA.

Used libraries from Hugging-Face and PyTorch and SOTA v3-8 TPU hardware to fine-tune the models.

Achieved a maximum F1 score of 68% and exact-match of 43% using fine-tuned ELECTRA, which is 40% better than the result published in the paper where the dataset was first introduced.

Location: San Diego, CA, USA

Performed keyword extraction and job role multinomial classification on a 'Resume' dataset.

Used NLP techniques such as count vectorizer and tf-idf to identify keywords and skills essential to job role.

Applied and tested various classification models such as baseline LR, Random Forest, XGBoost, and MLP with word embeddings as features. Applied PCA to further reduce features.

Achieved a Balanced Accuracy Score of 92% post hyper-parameter tuning on XGBoost Classifier.

Under my tenure at the joint secretary of this club, I took the initiative to bring new projects within the purview of the club, and introduced technologies such as racing and autonomous drones. I motivated the freshers of our college to actively participate in the club’s activities by conducting workshops, seminar, and industrial visits. Under my tenure, the club grew in leaps and bounds, and IIT(BHU) witnessed golden days of the club. The visibility of the club grew highly as we participated and displayed our projects at college events, thereby making this club one of the most popular and active clubs at the college. One of the prominent events conducted by our club in Technex went on to receive the best technical event award by the gymkhana for that year.

In 2017, our club introduced a dedicated events category called as “Ascension” in Technex, the annual techno-management event of IIT(BHU). I was the head of that event-category, which boasted four prominent and exciting technical competitions related to aero-modelling. We witnessed a high internal as well as external participation in these events, totalling to a footfall of about 600. This activity set aero-modelling club apart from other technical activities and it made a name and a permanent place for itself in Technex for years to come.

Location: Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India

I was the chief coordinator for Drone-tech, one of the events of Ascension at Technex. This event had the highest prize money of all the events at Technex. This event primarily tests the participants skills in drone making and flying. I, along with my team designed the problem statement for the event. We constructed the arena and organised the event which went on to become a grand success. Even now, the tradition of this event is continued and it remains the event with the highest stakes each year.

Aero-modelling club hosts a very unique event each year during Technex, which displays its technological powress in its full glory. Here, we display many of our flying models and perform exciting feats with them, which are a visual treat for the audience. We see a footfall of more than 2000, including students from various schools, and also professors as well as prominent members of the society. Here, I took up a lead role and led my teams efforts to make this show a grand success. During this year, we displayed new models such as 3D helicopter, racing drone formation, and drone fighting.
