Machine Learning Engineer, OlaElectric (Electric Two Wheeler Manufacturer)

Feb 2022 - Aug 2022

Vehicle Lifecycle Management

Predicting Battery Faults
  • Designed Attention LSTM-based models to predict battery faults with a recall rate of 80% using past 100km driving data
  • The model is comprised of two parts: The first LSTM model focuses on forecasting the time series, the second LSTM focuses on Predicting if the forecasted time series has a fault
Data Pipeline Automation for Efficient Complaint Resolution
  • Designed and deployed a data pipeline to access all organization data through RESTful APIs, reducing complaint resolution time by ~5 days (40%)
  • The Django-based application runs ETL jobs scheduled(using Celery) to fetch new data from identified data sources and puts them into the AWS bucket
Real-time Analytics using Apache Spark and Airflow
  • Designed and implemented a real-time fault monitoring system for electric scooters using Apache Spark and Airflow.
  • The system provided daily fault statistics and trend analysis to stakeholders via custom email templates
  • Automated the data collection and presentation process, reducing manual intervention and improving efficiency.

Route Optimization

  • Implemented a solution that would reduce the cost of transportation for electric bikes by ∼USD 6M per year, a reduction of 30% through the use of mixed integer programming
  • Resulted in a reduction of per-electric bike transportation cost by 30% and Turned Around Time(TAT) by 20% from placing an order to fulfilling it

Technologies used: Python, Pytorch, Pyspark, Django, PostgreSQL, PowerBI
