Quality Assurance Analyst & Team Lead
Jul 2016 - Dec 2017 | 1 yr 6 mos
After becoming a QA team of one, I took charge of hiring and building a new team from scratch. After
hiring all the members, forming the team, and creating the new process, I was leading a team of six. I
was coordinating priorities with development, infra, and product teams. Most importantly, I was making
sure all testing was done thoroughly and on time, bugs and incidents were reported and prioritized
correctly, and the product was working as expected according to its specifications. I also held the
product role in which I was helping the cofounder design and specify new features, design the roadmap,
and prioritize feature development.

Boooost: AI-Powered Smart Grocery and Pantry Management
Jan 2025 - Apr 2025
Designed and developed an end-to-end mobile application that unifies grocery planning, pantry tracking,
deal discovery, and recipe recommendations into a single platform. Built a scalable cross-platform solution
using Flutter, Firebase, and Google Cloud, with a modular architecture spanning the mobile app, cloud
backend, data processing pipelines, and machine learning services.
Leveraged large-scale real-world datasets (3M+ Instacart orders, 500K+ recipes from Food.com, Open Food
Facts API) to train and evaluate machine learning models. Implemented hybrid and zero-shot NLP-based
classification pipelines (TF-IDF, BERT, Word2Vec, GPT-based methods) to categorize grocery items from
noisy, unstructured data.
Developed a recommendation engine combining association rule mining (FP-Growth), embedding-based
similarity (Item2Vec), and transformer-based sequential models, with transformer models achieving the
strongest performance across ranking and accuracy metrics. Built additional ML pipelines for recipe search
(semantic similarity), recipe generation (fine-tuned language models), and ingredient recommendation
(BiLSTM + GRU).
Engineered an OCR-based catalog processing pipeline (Tesseract, PaddleOCR) to extract and index
supermarket deals from PDFs, enabling real-time search within the app. Integrated barcode scanning and
API-based product lookup to improve data coverage and reduce manual input.
Delivered a data-driven, personalized user experience that improves grocery planning efficiency and reduces
household food waste through intelligent, context-aware recommendations.

To-do Lists and Note Taking App
Nov 2016 - Nov 2017
Native iOS app to manage to-do lists and notes. Everything from the initial idea to publishing it on the
App Store was done by me.
The app uses Core Data to store lists, allows users to search through lists and notes, keep favorites,
share data with others via email, and import/export all data from the app. Every task and list has an
optional due date and reminder date (notifications). The user can see their own "score": how many tasks
were completed versus how many tasks there were in total.
Keywords: Objective C, Core Data, Google Ads, Google Analytics
Features:
- Multiple lists: create to-do lists to manage daily/weekly tasks, shopping lists, and long-term wish lists
- Notes: create notes to save ideas, thoughts, recipes, and tips
- Favorites: mark lists or notes as favorites and access them quickly through the favorites tab
- Search: search through all lists and notes by any search term
- Share via email/SMS: share selected and nicely formatted lists and notes via email or SMS
- Import/export: back up data in JSON format and easily import and export via email
