Lead DS \| AI Engineer \| Research \| 7\+ years of experience in DL and ML

## About

GenAI, LLM Agents, Applied ML, and Health AI Contact → ankitagarwalofficial1996@gmail\.com I'm a Senior Data Scientist with 6\+ years shipping production ML across wearable health data, clinical AI, and applied machine learning\. I work end to end, from research and prototyping to deployed services, and I care about systems that are technically rigorous, clinically defensible, and useful at scale\. \*\*\* My 2026 focus: frontier AI, LLM agents, and production ML where language models meet real\-world data, regulated environments, and high\-stakes user outcomes\. \*\*\* I love being early to disruptive tools and building with them, including foundation models, agentic architectures, and AI\-first product positioning\. LLM and AI Strategy: At Ultrahuman, I help shape the technical and product narrative for JADE, our AI companion that pairs foundation\-model conversation with continuous health signal context, positioned alongside the Health Age programme as a unified AI\-first health platform story for partners like the Department of Health Abu Dhabi\. Applied ML and Production: XGBoost, BiLSTM, ensemble models, A/B testing, and GPU/CUDA work, shipped through Flask, Docker, and Snowflake pipelines in Python\. I've productionised services from preprocessing and feature engineering \(101 features for sleep onset detection alone\) through to live inference\. Health AI and Clinical ML: I lead the Department of Health Abu Dhabi Health Age programme, an 18\-biomarker biological age system integrating Malaffi HIE blood data with Ultrahuman Ring metrics, validated on a 28,617\-user cohort and rolling out through Abu Dhabi's national health platform\. I've also shipped sleep onset detection, AFib detection, and BiLSTM sleep staging, and co\-authored a geopolitical sleep disruption white paper covering \~180,000 Ring AIR users across 46 countries\. Prior experience across WeRize \(fintech\) and Games 24/7 \(gaming and consumer analytics\)\. 2026 focus areas: ◦ Frontier AI, LLMs, Foundation Models ◦ AI Product Strategy and Positioning ◦ Applied ML, XGBoost, BiLSTM, Ensembles ◦ Production ML, Flask, Docker, Snowflake, Python ◦ Wearable Biosensing, PPG, HRV, SpO2 ◦ Biological Age and Healthspan Research ◦ Clinical and Regulated Healthcare AI ⎶⎶⎶⎶⎶⎶⎶⎶⎶ For roles, advisory, and collaborations: Email → ankitagarwalofficial1996@gmail\.com Location → Bengaluru, India, remote l, globally
