About Me

Hi! I'm Sejal, a passionate Software Engineer and Data Science Enthusiast based in Bengaluru, IND.

I love working with great people, getting creative with data, using state-of-the-art technologies and building awesome products. I have a big interest in how data shapes our lives and I enjoy telling computers what to do for a living.

In a wide range of subject areas, I have analyzed structured and unstructured data to extract actionable business insights. I love to craft stunning and clever visualizations that illustrate surprising results.

I'm strongly convinced that machine learning models should not go to waste in Jupyter Notebooks. Using my software engineering skills, I've built and deployed AI services which create real business value.

I enjoy public speaking, sharing my knowledge and discussing diverse topics. Shortly after graduating from 𝐒𝐑𝐌 𝐈𝐒𝐓, I joined the engineering team at 𝐃𝐞𝐥𝐥 where I work on a wide variety of interesting and meaningful projects on a daily basis.

Testimonials

  • Amit Parashar

    "Sejal did her internship with us this summer (May-June'18). She was part of R&D team of our mobile app platform - 'JobRonto'. Though she was initially supposed to contribute only in the development effort but her enthusiasm and ability to grasp new things with lightning speed made me give her additional project work, which involved extensive Data Research and building Business Model from scratch. She was very meticulous, focused and analytical in her approach and strictly adhered to the deadlines. Her zeal to work, positive attitude and never-give-up spirit made her an integral part of the team. I wish her the very best in her career, I am sure she'll go a long way..."

We can talk about technoloy, food, music, unicorns or really anything nice and geeky! I enjoy sharing my experiences, but I enjoy hearing others' personal journeys and opinions more. So feel free to say hello to me anytime!
