About Tanay Chowdhury

Data Science Lead at Amazon

With over 10 years of experience in data science and machine learning, I am a Data Scientist at AWS Generative AI Innovation Center, where I drive innovation and strategic planning for Gen AI initiatives for AWS customers. I have a Master's degree in Computer Science with Thesis in Machine learning, multiple certifications in data science and ML, and top rankings in several ML competitions.

I collaborate across business, data, product, and engineering teams to architect and deliver end-to-end ML/AI solutions with measurable business impacts. Some of my recent achievements include leading the development of a personalized recommender system for Food Network Kitchen, resulting in a ~10% increase in push notification open rates; engineering a deep learning-based ML pipeline to optimize the timing of push notifications, achieving an additional 6% improvement; and pioneering the development and deployment of ML-driven save offers in Max, deflecting cancellations while optimizing for ROI. I am also passionate about enhancing text generation models and applying them to creative domains, such as storytelling and content creation.
