Aveg Ganorkar
Data & AI Engineer · College Park, MD
I build data systems and AI products that work in production — streaming pipelines, LLM-powered applications, warehouse modeling, and the interfaces that sit on top of them. Comfortable owning projects end-to-end in startup and research environments.
Currently completing my MS in Data Science at the University of Maryland. Strong in Python, SQL, and cloud-native tooling with a track record of shipping reliable systems fast. I care about the details — from schema design to the dashboard stakeholders actually use.
Experience
Data Science & Analytics Intern
Drug Hunter
- Built Airflow-orchestrated NLP pipelines processing 1M+ biomedical records with 93% classification accuracy, reducing manual tagging by 50%.
