Quantitative Engineering at Goldman Sachs:

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my keen interest in the Associate, Quantitative Engineering ("Applied

AI Strat") position on the FAST Xasset Strats team in Bengaluru, as advertised on Linkedin.
With my strong background in machine learning, data science, and programming, coupled
with my passion for quantitative research and financial markets, I am confident that I possess
the necessary skills and experience to excel in this role.

In my previous experience as a Data Science Intern at Analytics Vidhya, I gained valuable

experience in developing and implementing machine learning products. I built an application
that automatically predicts loan approval for users, demonstrating my ability to create
practical AI solutions. Additionally, during my Data Science Task at British Airways, I
scraped and analyzed customer review data, building a predictive model that identified key
factors influencing customer buying behavior. These experiences honed my skills in data
analysis, model building, and uncovering valuable insights.
Furthermore, my project on "Efficient Dialogue Summarization Exploration, FLAN-T5 Fine-
Tuning with PPO and PEFT" showcases my expertise in working with advanced NLP models
and optimization techniques. I successfully enhanced dialogue summarization using
generative AI models and reduced toxicity in summaries through fine-tuning and prompt
engineering. This project demonstrates my ability to tackle complex NLP challenges and
deliver impactful results.

I am proficient in Python programming and possess a deep understanding of machine

learning techniques and algorithms, including decision trees, random forests, and deep
learning architectures. I am also experienced in A/B testing, hypothesis testing, and
experimental design, which are crucial for evaluating and improving model performance. I
am a highly motivated and results-oriented individual with a strong work ethic and a passion
for innovation.

I am confident that I can quickly learn and adapt to new challenges and contribute
significantly to the success of the FAST Xasset Strats team. I am eager to learn from the
experts at Goldman Sachs and contribute my skills to your team's efforts in driving real-time
decision making and revenue growth.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I am available for an interview at your earliest
convenience.

Sincerely,

Roshan.U
