Shivakumar Valpady

Data Analyst Intern

Embue•  May 2019 - August 2020

• Developed a UI dashboard to track around 500 thermostats across several buildings backed by MongoDB database. The Queried data from the MongoDB database were used to create UI and Web Server for multiple charts using Rshiny package in RStudio. • Created visualization through Rshiny app using ggplot2 and deployed it to customers as charts and tables using an AWS server. • Cleaned and Pre-processed data using tidyverse and dplyr packages. Used GitLab repository to store, monitor and share the work of every member of the team.

Teaching Assistant

University of Massachusetts / UMass Amherst•  January 2019 - May 2020

• Undergraduate teaching assistant for 3 consecutive semesters, 4 sections each in Computer Engineering and Physics department. • Responsibilities include demonstrating procedures, leading discussions, grading student lab reports, assignments, and exams.

Data Scientist

Syscare Technologies & Services Pvt Ltd•  October 2017 - March 2018

• Designed and implemented an AI security system using Deep Learning Model using LSTM and CNN. LSTM architecture was used to process continuous frames of input video fed from the camera. CNN architecture was used for object detection in each frame of the video. • Converted the existing model from the Tensorflow package to the PyTorch package with better efficiency of the model. Integrated the model on Raspberry Pi using Python language. • Established a validation framework by incorporating a probabilistic metric of the detected object using a bounding box on a monitor.
