Priya Rajagopal

As a Senior Data Scientist, I apply my expertise in Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Natural Language Processing to deliver data-driven solutions that enhance business performance and customer satisfaction. I have over six years of experience in data science, out of a total of ten years in the IT industry.

I work with a diverse team of data scientists, engineers, and analysts to design, develop, and deploy scalable and robust ML models and algorithms that solve complex problems and generate insights from large and varied datasets. I use Python, R, and various data visualization tools, such as Tableau, PowerBI, and Qlikview, to communicate the results and recommendations to stakeholders and clients. I also mentor and manage junior data scientists and ensure the quality and accuracy of their work. I am passionate about learning new technologies and techniques and staying updated on the latest trends and developments in the data science field.
