AIML Engineer @ Wayfair
About
I’m an AI/ML Engineer with over 4 years of hands-on experience building real-world machine learning systems from data to production. I enjoy working on problems where data, technology, and business impact come together. At Wayfair, I led the development of an AI-powered recommendation system that personalized shopping experiences using TensorFlow and AWS SageMaker. The solution improved customer retention by 22% while being scalable and reliable for millions of users. At Broadridge, I built NLP driven fraud detection pipelines using PyTorch and Azure ML. The system reduced false negatives by 10%, supported regulatory compliance, and enabled faster, real-time decision-making in high-risk financial environments. I’m passionate about designing practical ML solutions that deliver measurable results, whether it’s improving customer experience, reducing risk, or driving business value. I’m always excited to learn, collaborate, and work on impactful AI applications.
