After being promoted to a team lead, my main tasks were:- leading the validation of models developed in three departments of Sberbank- communication with departments' chief data scientists: scheduling model validation, negotiation of methodology, planning joint projects- managing a team of five data scientists and taking full responsibility for their work- creation of a validation methodology for new types of developed models (CV, clustering)- implementation of planned priority projects (quarterly/annual department goals)- preparation of different progress reports for the department director.Achievements:- optimized several validation tests, reducing their computation times by 10-100 times without a significant quality loss- conducted a pilot of the SberbankDS platform for colleagues from Kazakhstan and Belarus- since the beginning of my work at Sberbank, took part in the training of about 15 people and interviewed 80+ candidates.

Was responsible for the validation of various machine learning models, such as binary/multiclass classification, regression, time series, and text mining.Validation is a comprehensive evaluation of a machine learning model that includes qualitative and quantitative analysis as well as alternative modeling on the original data samples.Key achievements:- developed and continually improved a Python library which performs all validation tests in sequence and generates an Excel report for classification and regression models. To date, the library is actively used: 300+ models have been tested using it- participated in the development of internal data science platform "SberbankDS" and integrated all validation tests from the local library to the platform- created a Python module to automate routine actions in internal websites using requests library (i.e. changing statuses of 180+ tasks in the model tracking system, recreating 50+ test nodes on the DS platform)- conducted a course on data analysis for participants of the Sberbank MBA program (got a teacher's score of 9.1 out of 10 based on feedback).

Developed Python modules called "nodes" to be run on the DataFlow platform according to customer needs. Examples of nodes are "Read CSV", "Row Filter", "Fit Random Forest", "Calculate metrics", "Send SMS", etc. The project is built from these nodes and can be launched or scheduled to run at a certain time.It was a freelance job that I did in my spare time.Other tasks included:- integration with databases to save and load data- setting up and maintaining real-time projects using Kafka- building docker images with sufficient environment to run nodes- conducting demonstrations of the platform for potential customers.
