# Pauravi Wagh > Senior Software Engineer at Avant-garde Health Location: Brookline, Massachusetts, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/pauravi Current Work: I am a backend developer specializing in building and optimizing data pipelines. My work involves developing end-to-end solutions for various software products, including API development, database setup, and occasional front-end integration. Over the past four years, I have focused on automating ETL pipelines using AWS, serverless architectures, Python, and PySpark, as well as developing machine learning models to extract insights from complex datasets. In the healthcare domain, I process, transform, and derive actionable insights from data using advanced machine learning techniques. Additionally, I designed and implemented a chatbot leveraging OpenAI APIs and prompt engineering, showcasing my expertise in natural language processing and AI integration. Previous experience: I have worked as a front-end and back-end developer at Persistent Systems. I have developed a new user interface using JavaScript and AngularJs and have written multiple REST APIs for the same. I have provided client support for 2 years and have fixed over 150 bugs with a reopen rate of < 5%. I lead a team to provide Firefox support for Master Data Management- CE UI. I have worked as a research assistant at the Indiana University. I have also developed an end-to-end sentiment analysis model that would detect hate on social media. The model is made as a mix of traditional and deep learning methods to achieve the same. I also maintain the research group's website using Django and PostgreSQL I am primarily interested in software engineering, and machine learning roles. I wish to explore these fields in-depth and have implemented several projects. I am looking for opportunities to enhance my knowledge of these fields.

I enhance and maintain an intuitive user interface for tweet annotation using Django and PostgreSQL for multiple users. I am in the process of detecting hate on social media by developing sentiment analysis models using traditional and deep learning methods. I am automating the process of cleaning and pre-processing the raw tweet data using Python. I have successfully implemented python scripts to filter-out non-English tweets, non-live tweets. Tech Stack: Django, PostgreSQL, Python, nltk, tensorflow, scikit-learn, Tweepy. ### Associate Instructor @ Indiana University Bloomington Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 | United States CSCI P465/565 - Software Engineering I guided 4 student groups to develop software products like Volunteer Management System and Job Portal System following the Software development lifecycle methods(SDLC). I also graded homework, assignments and solved doubts pertaining to the project work. ### Senior Software Engineer @ Persistent Systems Jan 2018 – Jan 2019 | Pune Area, India I have worked on the Master Data Management - CE project where I developed multiple user screens for the new version of the MDM user interface. Along with that, I wrote REST APIs to support the front-end, thereby developing an end-to-end solution. I also led a team in refactoring the front-end JavaScript code of MDM to make it Firefox compatible. Tech Stack: JavaScript, Java, DOJO framework, RESTful API, db2, RTC, Jenkins, AngularJS ### Software Engineer @ Persistent Systems Jan 2016 – Jan 2018 | Pune, Maharashtra, India I have worked on 2 projects in this role. For the Smart Pollution Analyzing and Reporting Kit(SPARK) project, I developed a cost-effective model to analyze the pollution levels in a city using the Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure. Also, I performed predictive analysis on the pollution data, collected using Arduino Uno and stored in MongoDB using the IBM Bluemix platform. I and my team were awarded the first prize in the organization-wide Technothon competition. For my second project, Master Data Management-CE, I analyzed and optimized multiple SQL queries thereby reducing the fetch time of the REST APIs by 5%. I have solved and unit tested about 150+ defects (frontend and backend) with a reopen rate of less than 5%. Tech Stack: JavaScript, DOJO, Java, RESTful API, db2, RTC, Jenkins. ### Assistant System Engineer @ Tata Consultancy Services Jan 2015 – Jan 2015 | Gujarat, India ## Education ### Master's degree in Data Science Indiana University Bloomington Jan 2019 – Jan 2021 ### Bachelor's Degree in Computer Engineering Terna Engineering College Jan 2011 – Jan 2015 ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/pauraviwagh --- Source: https://flows.cv/pauravi JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/pauravi/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-22
