Open to Opportunities/Malappuram, Kerala · ASIET MCA Scholar

I'm Athul.

A student figuring out where technology can take me.

I'm currently pursuing my MCA and exploring data analysisPythonSQLandmachine learning by building projects and learning through practice.

I don't have years of industry experience yet — and I'm okay with that.

I'm looking for an opportunity where I can learn from experienced people, work on real problems, and build a strong career in technology.

// 01 · About Me

Still learning. Still building. Looking for the right place to start.

I'm Athul Krishna, currently pursuing my Master of Computer Applications (MCA) at Adi Shankara Institute of Engineering & Technology.

My interest in technology started with building software, but over time I became more interested in what happens behind the data — how information can be cleaned, explored, understood, and used to make better decisions.

That led me toward Python, SQL, data analysis, and machine learning.

Most of what I know has come from a combination of coursework, online learning, experimenting with datasets, and building projects. Some projects worked well, some didn't, and quite a few taught me more from debugging them than from writing them.

Machine Learning

Understanding the basics and applying them to projects

Power BI & Excel

Creating dashboards and presenting findings

Dataset & Project Experience

I've worked on projects involving datasets such as Airbnb listings, Walmart sales, Spotify data, Formula 1 results, and student-related datasets, along with software projects such as InterfaceGuard, an academic project focused on analysing software architecture and code quality.

// Career Trajectory

What I'm looking for

I'm at the beginning of my professional career, so I'm not looking for a role where I already need to know everything.

I'm looking for a place where I can:

01Learn from people with experience.
02Work with real data and real problems.
03Contribute wherever I can.
04Improve a little every day.
// Target Opportunities

I'm particularly interested in starting my career in:

Data AnalyticsBusiness IntelligenceData QualityEntry-Level Analytics & Tech Roles
// Beyond The Code

Outside the projects

I enjoy experimenting with new technologies, improving the things I build, and occasionally spending far too much time trying to make a simple interface look right.

I'm still figuring out exactly where my career will take me. For now, I'm focused on building a strong foundation and finding the right opportunity to take the next step.

Price Variance Analysis

Spent an embarrassing amount of time cleaning data before a single chart appeared. Power BI dashboard on how prices shift by location and room type. Lesson: cleaning is 80% of the job.

SQL on an HR dataset - headcounts, salary trends, tenure. The one where joins finally clicked. I'd been faking confidence with them before this.

Real-World Messy Data

Explore

Found a genuinely horrible dataset - wrong formats, missing values, columns named "column1". Cleaned it. Unglamorous, but this is real data work.

DAX Measures & Trends

Retail sample data, first real DAX measures. Month-on-month growth, running totals. DAX is weird. I like it now.

Online retail dataset, just explored it. First proper EDA where I had no idea what I'd find - which is the point, apparently.

BSc final year. The only non-data thing here. Taught me how real apps are structured. Also, six cases looks better than five.
