About Nayana G.

https://nayanachandrika99.github.io/I’m a Machine Learning Engineer pursuing an M.S. in Applied Machine Learning at the University of Maryland, College Park (B.S. in Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science). Over the past few years, I’ve worked end to end on ML systems: framing problems with stakeholders, building data pipelines, training and evaluating models, and deploying them into real products.My experience spans classic ML and deep learning (forecasting, representation learning, recommendation, optimization) as well as large language models (prompting, fine-tuning, agentic systems). My work emphasizes reliability and observability-shipping models with clear metrics, monitoring, and feedback loops so they remain aligned with product and business goals instead of becoming one-off experiments.I’m especially interested in roles where I can combine strong engineering with thoughtful ML: building robust models, making complex decisions more understandable, and turning raw data into tools people actually trust and use.
