Network Capacity Planning Team - Wrote C++ library used to query and extract user groups for product efforts and product groups, and implemented it into an existing pipeline used to produce a service model that obtains network and machine usage. Original process to manually query for user groups and write to config file was sped up to be automatic. - Automated process using Bash to backfill network and compute usage data to be used for prediction. Sped up the data acquisition process from manual backfill to overnight job. - Designed and implemented a Python pipeline to read, validate, aggregate and predict network usage for a specified service by analyzing the relationship between compute and network usage. Sped up the network demand forecasting process and increased flexibility of analysis by using protocol buffers. - Identified the top 20 services on entire Google network based on quality of service, traffic volume, and network coverage. Allowed for team to prioritize services to predict and identified cluster migrations. Show less

Ads Integrity Team - Determined the impact of stale data on ads classification models. Results led the team to optimize the training process of the models. - Wrote an experiment document specifying the details and results of the experiment. Allowed for new full-time employees to understand the lifetime of the team’s classification models and gave preliminary results for other machine learning teams to build on the experiment. - Constructed multiple Flume data pipelines in C++ to be used as input for machine learning models. Created, trained, and evaluated multiple models using TensorFlow (TFX platform). Visualized results on a dashboard for increased accessibility. Show less
