## About

I started with a question most students never ask: Why does this data exist, and what is it trying to tell us? \- That question took me from a B\.Tech classroom in Anna University Chennai to building ML systems that processed 50,000\+ records, detected speech patterns in 8,000\+ audio samples, and earned me a rank of Top 3% globally on Kaggle — among 57,000\+ data scientists worldwide\. \- Along the way, the Tamil Nadu Government noticed\. I received a ₹10,000 Research Grant to build an AI\-OCR system preserving handwritten historical documents — one of the most meaningful things I've built\. Here's what I bring to a team: 🔹 Machine Learning — Random Forest, XGBoost, BERT, Neural Networks \(81–88% accuracy on real\-world datasets\) 🔹 NLP & Generative AI — Sentiment analysis, text classification, transformer pipelines 🔹 Data Analytics — SQL, Power BI, Python — turning raw data into decisions 🔹 Fast execution — From data to deployed model, end to end I'm not looking for a role to learn the basics\. I've already done that\. I'm looking for a team that has hard problems and wants someone who will care deeply about solving them\. Open to Data Scientist, Data Analyst and Machine Learning Engineer roles across any industry — India \(Gurugram, Bangalore, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad\) and Remote globally\. 📩 prashantkumaryt53@gmail\.com
