## Quick Start

### **1. Local Setup (Docker Compose)**

```bash
# Clone repo
git clone https://github.com/ukishore33/FinRisk-MLOps-Pipeline-End-to-End-Model-Lifecycle-for-Credit-Risk.git
cd finrisk-mlops-pipeline

# Create .env
cat > .env << EOF
MLFLOW_TRACKING_URI=http://mlflow:5000
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_key
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_secret
EOF

# Start full stack (API + MLflow + PostgreSQL + Prometheus + Grafana)
docker-compose up -d

# Wait for services (~30s)
sleep 30

# Check health
curl http://localhost:8000/health
curl http://localhost:5000  # MLflow UI

# Check API
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/predict \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "age": 35,
    "income_monthly": 50000,
    "loan_amount": 500000,
    "loan_tenure_m": 60,
    "interest_rate": 10.5,
    "existing_loans": 1,
    "credit_score": 750,
    "employment_type": "Salaried",
    "education": "Graduate",
    "residence_type": "Own",
    "delinquency_30d": 0,
    "utilisation_pct": 30,
    "months_employed": 24,
    "loan_purpose": "Home Improvement"
  }'

### **2. Run training with MLflow logging**

python training/train.py

# Check MLflow UI
# http://localhost:5000 → Experiments → loan-default-xgboost

# Promote to Production
python training/register.py

3. Run Tests
bash
pytest tests/ -v --cov

4. Deploy to GCP
bash
# Set up credentials
gcloud auth login
export GCP_PROJECT_ID=your-project-id

# Trigger deployment (GitHub Actions will run on push to main)
git push origin main

# Or manual deployment
gcloud run deploy finrisk-api \
  --source . \
  --platform managed \
  --region us-central1 \
  --allow-unauthenticated

Key Metrics (Finance Domain)

Metric	Target	Definition
Gini	> 0.40	2 × AUC − 1 (discrimination ability)
KS	> 0.25	Max separation between CDF(defaults) − CDF(non-defaults)
IV	> 0.1	Information Value per feature (predictive power)
PSI	< 0.15	Population Stability Index (data drift)
Latency	< 500ms	P99 prediction latency
Precision	> 0.70	True Positives / (TP + FP)
Recall	> 0.65	True Positives / (TP + FN)
Retraining Trigger Logic
The Airflow DAG automatically retrains when:

Data Drift Detected (PSI > 0.25 on credit_score, income, loan_amount)
Model Degradation (Gini < 0.38 on production data)
Weekly Schedule (Every Monday 2 AM UTC)
If new model passes validation (Gini > 0.40 & KS > 0.25):

Promoted to Production
Old version archived
If validation fails:

Rolled back to previous Production version
Alert sent to data science team
Team Responsibilities
Role	Task
Data Scientist	Update hyperparameters, feature engineering
MLOps Engineer	Monitor infrastructure, handle deployments
ML Engineer	Maintain data pipeline, write training scripts
DevOps	Cloud infrastructure, CI/CD maintenance
Hiring Manager Talking Points
Full Lifecycle — You manage model from training → production → monitoring → retraining
Financial Domain — Gini, KS, PSI are the RIGHT metrics (not just accuracy)
Scalability — Auto-scaling on Cloud Run, batch inference for 10K+ records
Monitoring — Drift detection + alerting + automated retraining (no manual intervention)
DevOps Ready — Docker, GitHub Actions, Cloud Run, Prometheus, Grafana
Production Patterns — API versioning, model registry, feature validation, health checks
Testing — Unit tests, integration tests, performance benchmarks
This is what ₹10–14 LPA MLOps roles expect at HDFC Bank, ICICI, Razorpay, CRISIL, or fintech startups.

Cost Breakdown (GCP)
Component	Cost/Month
Cloud Run (1M requests)	$5–10
Cloud SQL (MLflow backend)	$20–30
Cloud Storage (artifacts)	$5–10
Compute Engine (Airflow)	$30–50
Total	$60–100
(Cheap for production ML system!)

This is a **complete, production-grade MLOps portfolio project**. What it demonstrates:

✅ **Full lifecycle** (data→training→deployment→monitoring→retraining)  
✅ **Financial metrics** (Gini, KS, PSI - not just accuracy)  
✅ **Scalable serving** (FastAPI + async + batch)  
✅ **MLflow integration** (experiment tracking + model registry)  
✅ **Drift monitoring** (Evidently AI)  
✅ **Orchestration** (Airflow DAG)  
✅ **CI/CD** (GitHub Actions → Docker → Cloud Run)  
✅ **Testing** (unit + integration + performance)  
✅ **Monitoring** (Prometheus + Grafana)  
✅ **Production patterns** (health checks, versioning, rollback)  

This is **exactly** what HDFC Bank, ICICI, Razorpay, and CRISIL hiring managers look for. You're not just a data scientist—you're a **full-stack ML engineer**.

**Timeline:** 3–4 weeks part-time (2 hrs/day). Start with FastAPI (2 days) → Docker (1 day) → MLflow (2 days) → GitHub Actions (1 day) → Evidently (2 days) → Airflow (2 days) → Cloud Run (2 days).
