I'm offering
I have 7 years of industrial experience working with Outsourcing companies in the Banking, Housing, Payroll, and Legal domain. In 2018, I decided to upgrade my skills to be at par with the market trend, hence, shifted from a COBOL Developer (Mainframe) to a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) developer, following which I decided to study in-depth about Machine Learning and Data Analytics. I am an awardee of the British Council India STEM scholarship which covered my tuition fee for the first year of Master’s in Data Science with professional placement from the University of Essex, United Kingdom.

Data Science Research Intern
Mondaq.
As a part of my Master's Dissertation project, worked on extracting features to best define named entities - organisation, date and location. The aim was to analyse the legal document articles to use Stanford CoreNLP for tokenisation and Part Of Speech
tagging. The Inside Outt and Begin tagging was done using Brat annotations followed by defining features to train a Conditional
Random Field based model. We had trained three models with window size 3, 5 and 7 with all of them giving near to 78% F1-
Score.

job
Software Developer (Data Analysis and RPA Development)
Tieto India Private Limited.
Project 2: Analysed the Housing Management data and tool for HSB, Sweden. Reported the monthly housing details related to
rent due payments, agreement cancellations and expirations along with energy consumptions for automation of gathering the energy consumption; followed by development of 2 automation robots for the housing management procedures using Robotic
Process Automation tool - UiPath. Clients were delighted with the turnaround and awarded new projects for HSB, Gothenburg.
Analysed the internal payroll details for creating scenario based question answers in a JSON format which were referred for
creating a Chabot for Tieto India Private Limited. Also, automated daily/monthly/yearly payroll processes for internal and external clients to decrease manual intervention using Robotic Process Automation tool - Blue Prism.
On a daily basis collaborated with developers and testers to enhance supportability and identify development bottlenecks.
Underwent a 3-week training to become proficient on Blue Prism and UiPath technologies, to handle the projects
independently.
Project 1: As a part of the loans management team for Nordea Bank (Finland Banking Services), I was tasked with requirement
gathering, development, testing and maintenance using mainframe technology following the agile methodology (SCRUM).
Liaised with teams across multiple regions and travelled between Finland and India to help move the project forward. Major
activities included -
• Creation/ updation of CICS screen (mainframe UI) and various automated reporting systems.
• Migration from IMS-DB to DB2 tables.
• Creation of test data from real time data using Optim tool for testing real time production scenarios. This tool was not
used by the team and I had taken the initiative to learn and provide knowledge transfer and guidance for adapting the tool.
