Software Engineer
* Utilized the big-data platform in Azure stack to help in empowering every person in the organization to mature their data driven decisions and achieve more.
* Designed and implemented an end-to-end solution to provide new hired employees' data to enhance their onboarding experience. The system is optimized to have low cost and maintenance.
* Re-designed and implemented a newer version of one of our main data products (employees' devices data). The newer version is easily configurable, has less lines of code (~100 in compare to 11000 lines in the older version) and improved runtime performance by 50%.
* Worked on multiple data products that provided insights on employee's' experience and showed the possible areas of improvement.
* Technologies: Spark, Databricks, Synapse, Azure Cloud technologies.

SKILLS
SOME OF MY WORK
PRESENTATIONS
SELECTED COURSES
The most interesting aspect about this specialization is that it was launched recently, in 2017. Therefore, it covers a variety of key concepts and networks in deep learning. The courses in this specialization also explain many types of NN, such as CNN, Neural Style, RNN, LSTM, etc. Additionally, Keras and Tensorflow are used in some of the assignments. I recommend these courses for anyone wants to start learning in this field; moreover, Stanford CS231n: Convolutional Neural Networks for Visual Recognition is also recommended.
Note that this specialization is taught by Prof. Andrew NG!
* Machine Learning Specialization (4 courses) | Coursera by University of Washington
This specialization is the most favorite one for me. I strongly recommend it and they start from scratch. The only negative side about it in my opinion is using GraphLab python library which is free for Academic Use. You can find almost all the functions in scikit-learn python library.
* Big Data | University Of Oklahoma
* Introduction to Game Development | Coursera by Michigan State University
* Control of Mobile Robots | Coursera by Georgia Institute of Technology
I like the idea of "Glu lectures" used in this course. It does not dig too much into details. Also recommended for anyone wants to start in Robotic world.
It is a well-known course with 11 weeks of heavy study. No comments needed ^_^.
