Experience

  1. Machine Learning Intern – Wafer Alignment Models

    ASML
    • Designed ML model to predict wafer deformation, enhancing layer alignment accuracy despite noisy sensor data
    • Ideated and compared data encoding techniques for wafer deformation data to increase prediction accuracy
    • Achieved a 10% improvement in alignment accuracy on test datasets – demonstrating potential of ML to advance chip manufacturing processes at ASML
  2. Machine Learning Engineer – Time-series Forecasting

    Amplus Solar (Petronas Group)
    • Developed time-series ML models to generate day-ahead power forecasts for PV solar plants using weather data
    • Deployed models across solar plants with 600 MWp cumulative capacity, achieving 30% reduction in regulatory fines
    • Created a time-series event detection model to disaggregate household energy use from voltage & current signals
  3. Machine Learning Research Intern – Poisoned Neural Networks

    University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (EECS)
    • Awarded $3,000 research scholarship to study adversarial attacks on ML models for visual object detection
    • Designed a detection framework to identify and localize Trojan signatures in compromised ML models
