I developed an automated system to classify mobile users' web browsing history on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), replacing costly semi-manual scripts, with the goal of optimizing activity categorization through web scraping, LLMs, and deep learning while cutting expenses. Achieved Tasks: - Performed web scraping to extract hostname metadata (content, categories) using Python (BeautifulSoup, Scrapy) for data enrichment. - Designed an initial scoring system, followed by ML models (Random Forest, XGBoost) and deep learning (CNN, Transformers) for final categorization, leveraging LLMs (Hugging Face) for semantic analysis. - Implemented Spark pipelines on GCP (Dataflow, BigQuery) to handle massive data volumes. - Optimized automation to reduce execution costs by 12 % ($10K/month).

I designed an end-to-end system to analyze and predict US stock performance for 1000 stocks, incorporating historical data (via APIs), watchlists (Excel/PDF), and algorithmic trading strategies. The goal was to generate annual predictions, buy/sell signals, and insights through ML models. Achieved Tasks: - Developed models (XGBoost, ARIMA, deep learning) for predictions and buy/sell signals, including feature engineering (200+ variables), hyperparameter tuning, and cross-validation. - Performed data analysis with enrichment via web scraping and integration of time-series data, consolidating watchlists (Excel/PDF). - Conducted backtesting of algorithmic trading strategies. - Deployed the system in production on cloud infrastructure, with weekly/monthly execution and dashboards for monitoring.
