EXPERIENCE
INDIAN INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT BANGALORE Bangalore, India
Research and Academic Associate, Decision Science Area Aug 2020 – Present
• Identified and collected data for research projects involving time series analysis; wrote code using python with
increased usability thereby reducing time spent on gathering data every time by 50%.
• Researched other web-based automation tools like Selenium to gather data from unstructured sources like
interactive charts which accounted for at least 60% of the total data gathered.
• Performed data integration and manipulation using pandas library, resulting in the creation of structured data
frames with 10000+ data points and at least 35 attributes.
• Designed dashboards and reports to summarise the time series data collected during a period of 5 months
and executed descriptive analysis to visualise any unusual trends; assessed key metrics when monitoring the
overall trend.
• Collaborated with four other associates in conducting and assisting academic course work under the
guidance of multiple professors regarding subjects like Statistics I, Statistics II, Business Analytics and
Intelligence.

Business Operations Intern, Operations Excellence Department Mar 2019 – Jun 2019
• Facilitated data-driven decisions by analysing CPG – Pharma data of a US client to identify bottlenecks in
their warehouse system enabling in an increase in the number of order lines picked on a daily basis from 750
to 1120 (50% increase).
• Implemented gap analysis to differentiate between the current as-is process and desired to-be process;

warehouse locations in India.

RESEARCH PUBLICATIONS
AN ANALYSIS ON VARIOUS DIAGNOSTIC TESTS FOR A CLASSIFICATION PROBLEM Oct 2020 – Present
• Developed a decision support system to classify a target market; successful implementation would enable
reduction in the consumption of resources by an extent of 80% with a classification accuracy of 83%.
• Conducted exploratory data analysis and data preprocessing to understand and spot key variables from a set
of 21 attributes resulting in better model predictions using various machine learning algorithms.
• Undertook an in-depth analysis on the various diagnostic tests available to select the right performance metric
for an unbalanced data containing 90% negative and 10% positive cases.
