Senior🎓
Top SchoolSharmistha Jat is a Senior Machine Learning Scientist with 11 years of experience building multilingual and multimodal ML systems, currently leading development of fine-tuned transformer LLMs and production-ready MLOps at FinTrU. Her background spans industry research and product impact—developing audio-text embeddings at Spotify that improved experiences for millions and pioneering methods to compare LLM representations with human brain activity during a joint PhD at IISc and CMU. She combines deep academic rigor (publications in ACL, NeurIPS, OHBM) with hands-on engineering across the full stack, from custom model architectures to deployment pipelines. Based in the UK, she brings domain-focused ML expertise in finance, transportation, and social media, and a rare blend of neuroscience-informed evaluation techniques that surface how models mirror human representations.
