RockstarAkanksha Bhattacharyya is a Software Engineer 2 at Microsoft with eight years of experience building production software and applied machine learning systems. She holds a master’s in computer science and has improved model accuracy and pipeline performance in research settings (e.g., a 15% accuracy gain on a civic-space forecasting project and 80% geo-parsing with multithreading and spaCy). Her skill set spans backend and cloud (Java, Python, Ruby, AWS/GCP/Azure), system design, and ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenCV), with hands-on experience deploying data-driven features and optimizing databases for query performance. She pairs technical delivery with strong communication and teaching instincts, having mentored researchers and taught undergraduate discrete math. Known for turning research prototypes into reliable services, she also brings an eye for product impact—previous internships boosted sales forecasting accuracy by 25% and improved UX/accessibility across 1000 retail stores.
