In collaboration with DDC, Microsoft AI team has developed a predictive machine learning model that forecasts monthly distribution of cash flow for DDC’s active projects. DDC intends to operationalize this model and possibly integrate into our dashboards. Assistance is needed of a data scientist to collaborate with DDC in operationalizing the model whereby DDC can prepare the visuals and data scientist can assist with operationalizing the machine learning components.

This is a volunteer opportunity for students to use their skills for the social good.
