Data Scientist | Software Developer

👋 Hi there! I'm Ganesh, a graduate student from Northeastern University, Boston, MA.

📝 I'm currently working on my research, where my focus is to build Multimodal Attention Models to identify hidden features in Instagram posts. I also look forward to the prospect of converting my research into a publication once I am able to draw a conclusion.

🎓 I'm also worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant for the Machine Learning Course at NEU, where I get to design assignments for 150+ students on Foundation Models, Generative Models, VAEs, and LLMs.

👨‍💻 I previously worked for Amazon.com, Inc (Seattle) and Amazon Robotics (Boston) as a Software Development Engineer where I have worked on Data Lakes, Data Storage and AWS tools.

📚 Before my Master's, I worked for about 6.5 years as a Senior Search Engineer in an e-commerce search provider. Here, I had the chance to demonstrate my expertise in NLP, where I built User Analytics Pipelines, trained NER models and Recommendation Engines to provide personalized search results. I also have hands-on experience in building Transformer Models for Language Translation, where I built Sequence to Sequence Attention models from scratch.

🎯 I'm actively seeking full-time/new grad opportunities within the space of Software engineering, AI/ML and Data Science. If you think i'd be a good fit to any of the open roles at your organization, please do reach out to me. Thanks!
