The problem

Sol Flower needed demand forecasts for each of its locations, built from years of point-of-sale history.

What I built

A multivariate time-series pipeline that models the historical sales data in BigQuery, trains deep-learning TiDE models against ARIMA+ baselines, and runs on Vertex AI and Kubeflow. Retraining and evaluation are automated for every location.
