Data and Applied Scientist

Working on sponsored search advertisements on the BingAds platform, under the guidance of Jitendra Ajmera, I accomplished tasks like:

  • Designing better pricing algorithms to help advertisers spend their budget to get maximum returns across platforms.
  • Using stochastic modelling techniques for experimentation to see if the accuracy for predicted performance indicators can be improved.
  • Improving the prediction for advertiser parameters and incentivising advertisers to reveal true value for the click.
  • Large scale data storage optimizations to reduce the memory by >30% to decrease the cost-to-serve.
  • Deciding optimum parameters for maximum revenue generation subject to market constraints and modelling better pricing rules.
  • Improving the clustering mechanism to create better query distribution and automating its workflow.
