I’m working as an Applied Research Scientist at Amazon with India Machine Learning team.

Previously, I have worked as a Machine Learning Engineer at Jio Haptik on fundamental Conversational-AI problems using Deep Learning. I built the Intent Detection System for Haptik’s NLU Engine, which was 25% more accurate than their previous system, owning it from Research to Production.

I have authored research papers which have been accepted at top tier venues like EMNLP NLP-OSS workshop, EMNLP Insights workshop, EACL LT-EDI workshop and FIRE.

I am also the creator of open source iNLTK library which provides out of the box support for various NLP tasks, for low resource 13 Indic Languages. The library has 70,000+ downloads, 700+ stars and 100+ forks on GitHub.

Prior to Jio Haptik, I worked at Goldman Sachs with the User Experience and Productivity team on Analytics for Desktop Assistant, which is firm-wide used productivity tool.

I have Advanced Certification in AI and ML from International Institute of Information Technology (IIIT-Hyderabad) and Bachelor’s in Computer Science from PEC University of Technology.

I am interested in the applications of Machine Learning to solve problems which will impact millions and keep making my little open source contributions towards it.
