  • Leveraged 7+ years of SQL expertise to query, process, and validate complex datasets (text, audio, video), improving data quality and consistency by 8% for machine learning model training.
  • Executed advanced data annotation and labeling for audio datasets, applying Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques for Named Entity Recognition (NER) and sentiment analysis to create high-fidelity training data for Generative AI.
  • Enhanced team productivity by 15% by developing training materials and mentoring five new team members on data annotation best practices, quality standards, and complex labeling tools.
  • Applied rigorous data governance principles to manage sensitive client information, ensuring data integrity and achieving a 100% compliance rate during a critical client audit.
  • Collaborated with data science and engineering teams to define data requirements and resolve annotation ambiguities, utilising data analysis skills to interpret complex, high-volume datasets and ensure alignment with machine learning objectives.

Technology Analyst

Infosys Limited
10.2014 - 08.2022
  • SQL Scripting & Optimisation: Developed and optimised 50+ complex SQL scripts (joins, stored procedures, functions, CTEs) in Oracle, accelerating data retrieval by 30%. This improvement enabled a major US retailer’s finance team to generate reports 2 business days faster, enhancing decision-making.
  • ETL & Data Integration: Designed and automated end-to-end ETL pipelines (Azure Data Factory, Python) to consolidate data from ERP, CRM and flat-file systems. Optimisations (e.g. parallel processing, code tuning) reduced daily processing time by 25% and improved data quality to >99% accuracy.
  • Data Modeling & Governance: Built robust data models (star schemas, normalised tables) and enforced data governance standards for a UK manufacturing client, improving consistency and cutting error rates by 15%. These efforts ensured reliable analytics for inventory and production reporting.
  • Reporting & BI (Tableau/Power BI): Created interactive dashboards in Tableau and Power BI to visualise key KPIs (sales trends, inventory levels, financial metrics). The new reports increased reporting efficiency by 40% and helped drive a 10–15% uplift in actionable business insights, guiding strategic decisions in retail operations.
  • Automation with Python: Leveraged Python (pandas, NumPy, SQL libraries) to automate data cleansing and validation, eliminating 50% of manual preprocessing. This automation shortened data preparation cycles and freed the team to focus on advanced analytics.
  • BAU Support & Reliability: Oversaw daily BAU operations (data loads, report distribution, issue resolution) for global stakeholders, maintaining 99.9% on-time delivery and resolving 100% of data incidents within SLA. I performed these tasks independently, ensuring uninterrupted data availability.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Worked closely with US and UK business and IT teams (especially in retail and manufacturing domains) to translate requirements into analytical solutions. I embedded financial controls and risk-framework checks into reports, reducing compliance issues by 10%.
  • Proactive Improvements: As a self-starter, I initiated a company-wide data validation initiative under minimal supervision. This project standardised quality checks across systems, halved data correction needs, and significantly improved end-to-end process efficiency.
