About Me

Anannya Saha

My journey into technology began with a fascination for solving puzzles, which led me to a Computer Science degree from Ontario Tech University. Today, I channel that passion into my work as a Data Engineer, where I get to unravel the complexities of data to build efficient, automated systems.

At the Ontario Public Services, I've had the opportunity to wear multiple hats—from a data modeling analyst automating reports with Python to a senior developer co-leading the rollout of enterprise-level systems in Dynamics 365. My core focus is always on bridging the gap between technical possibilities and business needs, whether that's through a Power BI dashboard for staffing analytics or a PowerApps tool that cuts workflow inefficiencies by 38%.

Beyond the code, I'm a lifelong learner committed to exploring how technology can create clearer, more effective ways of working.

The Journey

A timeline of key milestones in my career.

Developing Enterprise Solutions

As a Senior Applications Developer, I co-led the development of an Audit Case Management System in Dynamics 365 and optimized backend workflows with Python data validation scripts.

Excellence in Automation Award

Received the Excellence Award for transforming manual workforce approvals using a combination of Python and Power Automate.

Bridging Policy and Technology

As a Workforce Policy Analyst, I developed the automated staffing request tool and built interactive Power BI dashboards for workforce forecasting and policy analysis.

Recognition for Innovation

Received the Innovator Award for creating an enterprise analytics tool to generate organization charts from complex datasets.

Diving into Data Automation

Began my career as a Workforce Data Modelling Analyst, automating Excel reporting with Python to achieve a 65% faster workflow and developing robust data pipelines.

Foundation in Computer Science

Graduated with Distinction from Ontario Tech University with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, building a strong foundation for my career in technology.

The Lab

A peek into my digital sketchbook of ideas, experiments, and code snippets.

🤖 Exploring Anomaly Detection

Experimenting with Azure AI fundamentals to build a model that flags unusual patterns in service reporting data. The goal is to proactively identify potential issues before they impact performance metrics.

💡 Idea: Integrating Financial Data

Thinking about a v2 for the Staffing Request Tool. I could extend the Power Automate flow to connect to a financial system's API, allowing for real-time budget validation during the approval process.

💡 Idea: Predictive Forecasting

Could the staffing data from the Power BI dashboard be used to train a simple time-series model? It would be interesting to forecast departmental turnover rates for the next quarter.

⚙️ Experiment: Real-time Data Sync

Testing a new method for real-time data synchronization between SharePoint and a SQL database using a lightweight Python script and Azure Functions for better performance.

🎨 UI/UX: Dashboard Color Theory

Researching color theory principles to apply to Power BI dashboards, aiming to improve readability and guide user attention to key metrics more effectively.

📈 Concept: Sentiment Analysis

Sketching out a concept for a tool that performs sentiment analysis on user feedback forms to automatically categorize and prioritize issues for development teams.

My Tech Stack

The tools and technologies I use to bring ideas to life.

Languages & Databases

Python (Numpy, Pandas) SQL

Cloud, BI & Enterprise Systems
