Key Strengths

  • Built predictive model for transformer failure using sensor data plus maintenance comments
  • Applied LLM-based extraction and sentence chunking to structure unstructured maintenance text
  • Used similarity metrics (cosine) to validate text/embedding proximity
  • Strong focus on preventing data leakage (placeholders during sensor downtime)
  • Baseline modeling with feature importance to refine feature set
  • Designed data quality tiers (gold/silver/bronze) via SQL for production modeling
  • Emphasis on production reliability: guardrails, hallucination checks, bias/fairness validation, stress testing
  • Experience validating model fairness across different company sizes and demographics in contract/spec evaluation
