I am also an expert in Six Sigma and machine learning techniques, and I am always learning new skills to stay up-to-date with the latest technologies.In my current role as an Improvement Engineer/Business Analyst at IFF, I am responsible for leveraging data to optimize processes and achieve strategic business goals. I recently conducted quantitative statistical analysis on process utility usage, resulting in a 15% reduction and identifying capital projects for an additional 25% reduction. Additionally, I utilized machine learning regression algorithms to determine the primary process influencers that contributed to out-of-spec products, leading to a substantial decrease in defects.Prior to my current role, I held multiple positions in the medical device industry, where I was responsible for ensuring that process design and modifications complied with all applicable regulations, reduced cost, and increase quality.
