OVERVIEW

I'm Rizwan Karim Rafat, a Machine Learning Developer with a strong foundation in data science, artificial intelligence, and applied analytics. I specialize in building intelligent systems that bridge the gap between research and real-world impact - from predictive analytics in business environments to deep learning models for robotics and reinforcement learning. My academic journey, earning a Master's in Data Science (AI & ML) from Western Sydney University, shaped my expertise in modern ML frameworks, data pipelines, and MLOps.

Professionally, I've worked across three continents - from optimizing hotel operations at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts (Canada) using Python-based forecasting models, to improving infrastructure reliability at Geeks2U (Australia) through automation, and designing analytical dashboards at Honda (Bangladesh) that improved business decisions. These diverse experiences have helped me combine analytical precision with an engineer's mindset for problem-solving, data-driven optimization, and system scalability.

Beyond industry work, I've developed several applied AI projects, including robotic grasp control using 3D point-cloud data with a 93.6% success rate, reinforcement learning agents for predictive gaming environments, and neural network models for temperature prediction and image generation. Each project reflects my curiosity for experimentation and my commitment to translating complex AI ideas into deployable, measurable outcomes.

Outside of my professional life, I love doing street photography whenever I get the chance. It's my way to destress and capture the beauty of everyday life through my lens.
