About

Utkarsh Shukla is a passionate and tech-savvy individual with expertise in data science, data engineering, and mathematics. With almost four years of relevant experience, he is currently working as a Data Science - II at BlinkIt, where he is developing a Neural Mass Computational Framework to Study Synaptic Mechanisms Underlying Alpha and Theta Rhythms. Utkarsh is a graduate of Vellore Institute of Technology, where he completed his bachelor's degree. He possesses a unique blend of data engineering and data science skills, thanks to the opportunity of wearing different hats at a fast-growing startup. Prior to his current role, Utkarsh worked as a Data Engineer - II at Atlan, where he developed scalable models for prediction of Demographic, Economical and Human Settlement parameters of different geographies for providing business solutions. He also developed a graph-based analysis model for identifying human Settlement patterns and distribution of family types across Indian metro cities. Additionally, he created data cleaning and scraping pipelines on Airflow and built data quality as a service using Spark to calculate statistical metric using Amazon dequee while providing an interface to implement custom metrics with support for data sources like Snowflake, Data Lakes on S3, Oracle. Before Atlan, Utkarsh was a Data Science Research Associate at The University of Manchester, where he developed a Neural Mass Computational Framework to Study Synaptic Mechanisms Underlying Alpha and Theta Rhythms. Utkarsh's technical expertise includes Data Science, Data Engineering, Spark, Apache Airflow, Deep Learning, Snowflake, ETL, Postgres, and Research Scientist. He is more interested in solving a problem rather than applying a Deep learning architecture to data that can be analyzed by a simple linear regression. Utkarsh is an individual who is always eager to learn and explore new technologies. He is passionate about technology and the tools that help him understand it better.
