• Actively participated in customer meetings, showcasing our platform’s capabilities and addressing clientquestions and concerns.

Minnesota, United States

• Spearheaded the design and implementation of an end-to-end platform for Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits, optimizing decision selection and ranking. This platform saw the following achievements:(1) Attained a 40%.
• Marketing Decision Engine: Designed and implemented a comprehensive platform mediating between digital marketing and internal promotions across the website and app. Balanced manual constraints (budgets, impression.
• Tech Lead: Led a team of 5 developers on implementing the multi-armed bandit platform. Acted as the primary designer, developer, and reviewer of all components on the platform. Mentored and guided junior developers to.

Eden Prairie, Minnesota, United States

• Using Kafka, streamed thousands of predictions per second identifying late shipments before they occurred. This led to better customer outcomes by informing the customers preemptively to compensate for late arrivals.
• Created Kafka producers to stream model predictions and ground truth events into snowflake for data science and analytical workloads. Monitoring was built for real time model performance as well as overtime analyses to.

Greater Minneapolis-St. Paul Area

• Prepared, trained, and deployed a multi-task deep learning model using 200M+ training instances that identified potentially late truckload shipments up to days ahead of time, improving over previous models by a factor.
• Communicated directly with business stakeholders to help design custom solutions while maintaining scalability. Such solutions helped to uphold the relationship with multi-million dollar customers and simultaneously.

Edmonton, Alberta

• Evaluated Multi-Task Logistic Regression, Random Survival Forests, Cox Proportional-Hazards, and Accelerated Failure Time survival models across a variety of evaluation metrics for time to event data.
• Constructed novel methodology to model and evaluate patient specific survival prediction.
• Built an R package to support Multi-Task Logistic Regression.
• Estimated customer reservation prices using survival prediction techniques andcommunicated how these estimates can lead to increases in profit.
• Generated manuscript for peer-reviewed publication (under review at Journal of Machine Learning Research).
• Advised and supported a student group project whose work was accepted to IJCAI 2019 (Simultaneous Prediction Intervals for Patient-Specific Survival Curves).

Alberta, Canada

• Led practice seminars to give students supplemental class material and practice problems.
• Held office hours to give student support for assignments/quizzes/exams and general questions.
• Graded assignments and gave additional feedback to help students overcome academic challenges.

San Antonio, Texas

• Developed statistical models to (1) identify important features for prediction of dental emergencies, (2) conduct a meta-analysis of dental emergency rates in deployed Sailors and Marines, and (3) examine the usage of.
• Consulted with teams and individuals on their research projects within the dentistry research unitand recommended appropriate statistical tests and suitable modelling techniques on a project specific basis.
• Assisted in producing white papers, technical reports, articles, and presentations of technical material.

University Of Minnesota Morris

• Operated within a research team to analyze the effects of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) on commercial truck driver’s crash risk, crash cost, and medical care.
• Data from medical forms and health insurance claims were aggregated to scrutinize the ability of medical examiners to identify OSA and hypertension.
• Utilized STATA for data processing and analysis of millions of health insurance claims, trucking operational data, and other protected health information (PHI) data.
• Assisted in manuscript generation, editing, and revision process.

La Crosse, Wisconsin Area

• Modelled survivability of the Indiana Bat species under different conditions utilizing simulations, matrix models, branching processes, and other growth models.
• Developed simulation code in R (https://github.com/haiderstats/PBR-Allee).
• Drafted manuscript for peer-reviewed publication in Natural Resource Modelling.
