Training a Smart Cab to Drive
January 1, 2017 – Present
○ Successfully applied reinforcement learning (Q-learning) to teach a “smart-cab” agent to drive reach its destination with A/A+ in safely and reliably. ○ Explored different agent state representation based on the sensory inputs available, as well as different learning rates.
Finding Customer Segments
November 1, 2016 – Present
○ Discovered hidden customer segments in the dataset by deploying K-Means/Gaussian Mixture Models, and tuned model hyper-parameters to achieve optimal clustering performance. ○ Carried out in-depth data exploration through outlier identification & removal, feature reduction & transformation via Principal Component Analysis. ○ Interpreted analysis result and successfully transformed insights into actionable business strategies to increase operation efficiency.
Student Intervention System
September 1, 2016 – Present
○ Developed an early alert system that identifies students with trouble in their learning with a F1 score of 0.84. ○ Performed model selection by comparing the performances between AdaBoost, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Gaussian Naïve Bayes classifiers.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's career trajectory shows a strong focus on data science and machine learning across various industries (finance, e-commerce, tech). Their academic background in Aerospace Engineering, followed by specialized nanodegrees in Deep Learning and Machine Learning, demonstrates a continuous learning mindset and adaptability. The personal projects further reinforce a proactive approach to skill development. While the target role is 'Data Analyst', the candidate's experience is heavily skewed towards 'Data Scientist' and 'Machine Learning Engineer' roles, which might indicate an overqualification or a potential mismatch in expectations for a pure analyst role. The breadth of experience across different companies and project types suggests adaptability and a willingness to tackle diverse challenges.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's experience as a Data Science Manager at Scotiabank indicates strong leadership, mentorship, and stakeholder management skills. Their involvement in establishing governance frameworks and managing model validation processes suggests a structured and compliance-oriented approach. The policy and regulatory consultant role also highlights strong analytical and communication skills in complex environments. These attributes suggest a good operational fit for roles requiring both technical depth and team/project leadership.
