🚀 Welcome to the digital abode of Rishabh Lala🚀
A Civil Structural engineer turned business analyst. I'm a fusion of the detailed and productive engineering mind now with the strategic and analytical depth of business decision-making equipped with programming skillset.
Data to me is the source of all knowledge, and truth. Figures and charts are a way I sell my story. Stories turn into impactful business decisions. Business decisions lead to profit generation. Check out my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BusinessAnalyticswithRishabh
SKILL SET:
-> Microsoft SQL server management studio -> Machine Learning through Python and Azure Machine Learning Platform -> Deep Learning -> Prompt Engineering -> Business Development -> Inferential Statistics - Hypothesis testing -> Linear Regression -> R Programming -> OSI Model -> Network Security, -> Support Services -> Wireshark -> Artificial Intelligence: using AI product for product development (Voice over, image generation, content creation, video generation) - I have three youtube channels, 2 of them produce value added content purely using automated AI tools. -> MS Power App development -> Android Development -> Junior Java Developer abilities -> MATLAB -> Automation through python packages like Selenium -> Web Development - HTML, CSS, Javascript -> Web app development -> Product Development -> Product Marketing -> Company Valuation -> Market Basket Analysis -> Lift curves -> Excel - Pivot Table, VLOOKUP, Macros Transferrable Skills: -> There is no person in the market who pays more attention to detail than a structural engineer. Engineer's minutest mistake kills people. -> We program to make product and automate taks. Product development and focus on clients needs are always occupy top spot of engineer's mind. -> Efficient object oriented programming is a trait -> System Design is my cup of tea. -> Business Strategic decision making and business development is something that my engineering mind has invested more than 15 years on. Current business masters degree is the result of the inheritance, experience, and regular time investments. -> Communication skills (provide YouTube link), report developments, product marketing: I have brought in business for my previous firms, so I understand how clients think, their needs, and how to make sales, and how to fulfil their needs. I have done long term client coordination, answered their questions, provided them with deliverables. Therefore, I should be fit for your role as well. I humbly request you, to take it personally, and help me succeed in IT and Finance whichever job opening you might have. Because, the last thing we all want to see is a hardworking person with 100% dedication fail to our policy limitations. I have taken 100 steps to reach out to shake hands with you, please stand and take a couple of them toward me yourself! NOTE: I can't work for you if you cant transfer my H1-B Visa to your company.

My Story: From Designing Large Structures to Machine Learning Stocks
From the time I first encountered Claude Bernard's quote about the value of mistaken hypotheses and theories in leading to discoveries, "The alchemists founded chemistry by pursuing chimerical problems and theories which are false," I have been driven by a desire to explore what others consider improbable. With two master's degrees in civil and structural engineering and five years of professional experience, I have achieved success in my field. However, my recent reflections on performing data cleaning in my current role have led me to realize that my true passion lies in the world of data-driven and finance technologies, where I can apply my creativity towards solving problems in business decision-making.
Navigating from the tangible world of civil engineering into the volatile world of finance and stock trading puts my experience in less than 1%. It's a journey least traveled. Yet my journey unveils the hidden synergies between engineering and business problem-solving. Join me as I share my journey from engineering buildings and bridges on I4s and Turnpikes to building financial strategies. My biggest motivator has been my mistakes and the financial losses that has shaped my perspectives.
An Unlikely Pathway: Engineering to Finance and IT
Despite having a solid foot in civil engineering for a decade, my curiosity has led me to explore the enigmatic world of finance and stock trading. The transition is not smooth just like the unpredictable stock markets. Sometimes I do great and sometimes I learn.
The Painful Lessons from a $50K Loss
Losing $50K in stocks was not just a financial setback but a poignant lesson that underscored the volatile and unpredictable nature of the market. This loss, both painful and enlightening, became a catalyst for my determination to prevent others from experiencing the same financial pain and to assist them in navigating through their financial journeys with informed and strategic advice.
Problem Solving: A Transferable Skill
A decade of problem solving had honed my problem-solving skills to a fine art. Whether dealing with structural challenges or financial dilemmas, the core principles of problem-solving remained consistent: assess, strategize, and implement. My journey into finance and stock trading became an extension of my engineering career, applying the same rigor, analysis, and strategic planning to financial problem-solving as I did to engineering challenges.
Building Financial Strategies: An Engineer’s Approach
My hobby of creating and building models, cultivated through my career as a structural engineer, found a new outlet in finance and IT - crafting robust and strategic financial plans. Just as constructing a building requires a sound blueprint, meticulous planning, and strategic implementation, sculpting a financial strategy demands a comprehensive understanding of the financial landscape, foresight to predict potential pitfalls, and strategic planning to navigate through the volatile financial markets.
Small Town to Big City: Working My Way Up
Working my way up from a small town in India to engineering megastructures like bridges has taught me the importance of hard work, perseverance, and grit. As a self-taught programmer and structural engineer, my unique life experiences, skill set, and perspectives pooled with academic excellence, and scientific research experience will add diversity to your company. I believe that my peers can learn from my experiences, just as I can learn from theirs.
Conclusion: An Aptitude will be your Biggest Asset
As we journey through the fascinating intersection between civil engineering and finance, it's evident that the skills and aptitudes developed in one domain can seamlessly translate into another. It’s not the domain but the skills – problem-solving, strategic planning, and risk management – that dictate success. As I continue to navigate through the financial landscapes, leveraging my engineering mindset and experiences, my mission is to guide, inform, and help others carve out their financial path with informed, strategic, and empathetic guidance.
In the worlds of structures and stocks, may we find the strategies, insights, and courage to navigate through, build robust pathways, and foster growth, stability, and success in our endeavors.
