Nupur Gulalkari is a machine learning engineer with 11 years of experience building data-driven products and pipelines, currently at Google after roles at Houzz and Gracenote. She combines hands-on expertise in Python, R, Spark and SQL with practical deployment experience across Azure, Tableau and BI tooling to turn large-scale signals into actionable features and recommendations. Her work spans NLP (BERT, sentence transformers, keyphrase extraction), CV (OpenCV saliency and banner placement), and time-series/RNN modeling for audience and demographic prediction, with measurable impact such as automating 50k+ images and saving ~8,000 hours. Comfortable moving models from research to production, she also brings product-focused analytics—optimizing CTR, content ranking and cross-vertical recommendations—to improve user experience. Based in Redwood City, she leverages a strong academic foundation (MS Information Systems) and a demonstrated knack for reducing end-to-end processing times and surfacing business value from messy, multimodal data.
