## About

Atharva Joshi is an ML engineer focused on production machine learning, MLOps, AI engineering, and quantitative systems\. Atharva builds deployed classification models, NLP pipelines, RAG\-based recommendation systems, real\-time anomaly detection products, and evaluation systems with testing, CI/CD, monitoring, and human\-in\-the\-loop controls\. His work spans industrial predictive maintenance, regulated healthcare workflows involving PHI, metabolomics and epidemiology research, and financial\-machine\-learning tooling\. Atharva is particularly strong at identifying ambiguity and operational constraints in high\-stakes workflows, designing structured feedback loops, detecting drift, and using human overrides as valuable training signals while preserving final decision authority for people\. At Machinery Monitoring Systems, Atharva engineered 29,988 features from 12 heterogeneous vibration and operational\-telemetry sources, classified four fault types with 99\.98% accuracy, and delivered real\-time scoring and predictive alerts up to 48 hours before failure\. He also built finreg\-ml, a PyPI package for model explainability, fairness audits, and automated compliance checks AgentEval, an open\-source evaluation framework for AI agents and Atlas, a C\+\+20 order\-book engine reaching 62 million operations per second\. Atharva holds an MS in Data Science from the University at Buffalo, SUNY, with a 3\.73 GPA and is exploring Data Science, ML Engineering, AI Engineering, and Quantitative Research opportunities\.
