Vikas Chitturi is a Staff Software Engineer specializing in Data Science and ML with eight years of experience building scalable ML pipelines, data engineering platforms, and productionized NLP solutions across healthcare, retail, and logistics. Comfortable across Python, Scala, Spark and cloud platforms (Azure, AWS), he has a track record of cutting runtime from hours to minutes, migrating R workloads to robust Python pipelines, and contributing feature-store capabilities for repeatable MLOps. Vikas pairs strong mathematical training (MSc Mathematics, BE) with practical systems skills—Elasticsearch, PySpark, Databricks and Spark-based ETL—delivering end-to-end solutions from ingestion to model serving. An active competitive coder and open-source contributor, he maintains repos for competitive programming and a complete Atomic Scala exercise set, reflecting a deep interest in algorithms and functional programming. He’s particularly focused on NLP use-cases and advanced Python/Scala engineering, and often automates notebook-driven workflows (papermill, Prefect) for reproducibility and observability.
