Pulkit Mangal

Data Scientist & Machine Learning Engineer

Passionate about transforming data into actionable insights. Currently pursuing BS in Data Science from IIT Madras with hands-on experience in ML pipelines, deep learning, and scalable applications.

About Me

I'm a detail-oriented and passionate Data Scientist with strong foundations in statistics, machine learning, and algorithmic problem-solving. Currently pursuing a BS in Data Science Applications from IIT Madras, I have experience developing end-to-end ML pipelines, performing exploratory data analysis, and deploying scalable applications.


My expertise spans across various domains including anomaly detection, time series forecasting, and deep learning. I'm proficient in Python ecosystem tools and have demonstrated ability to translate complex concepts into accessible insights through my teaching and content creation roles.


I'm eager to contribute to data-driven decision-making in dynamic, innovation-focused teams and continue pushing the boundaries of what's possible with data science.
