Experience:
• Developed and architected prototype geo-spatial data analysis pipelines using micro-service based architectures, Monte Carlo Simulations for testing the analysis techniques, web applications for visualizing the data analytics, and contributed in some development of analytic capabilities
• Developed data pipelines used Elkstack, Redis, Docker, and Ansible
• Developed PoC Android application that used Bluetooth to determine contact with individuals with COVID; privacy was enforced using ephemeral, random generated keys only owned by the device owner; videos of demo gained media attention and caused Google and Apple to develop their own similar APIs to their SDK

- Footage from demo in clip : https : //www.voanews.com/covid-19-pandemic/smartphone-app-warns-if-youve-been-exposed-coronavirus
• Architected and developed an open-source Python library, Statswag which is used for estimating the quality of models from ground truth datasets and selecting top unlabeled items in the data to label that can improve the model; library allows devs to easily integrate their own estimators and query algorithms
