Summary
Niyati Shah is a Staff Software Engineer with nine years of experience building data-driven ML and software solutions, currently advancing reliability and scale at GEICO. She holds an MS in Computer Science from CSU Long Beach and led graduate research that combined autoencoders, PCA and ResNet50 feature extraction to achieve 95% accuracy in automated microstructure identification. Comfortable across Python, Java, R and SQL, she bridges research and production—deploying models, crafting Android apps that run ML models, and contributing project code on GitHub. Her background spans enterprise systems at Elevance Health and Credence Analytics, where she sharpened backend and data engineering skills. A practical problem-solver, she pairs strong communication with experience in computer vision techniques (HOG, SIFT) and deep learning stacks (TensorFlow/Keras). Less obvious: she built a Tkinter tool for visual micrograph search, reflecting an appetite for end-to-end tooling that makes research models immediately usable.
