Abhishek Vasudevan
@abhishekvasudevan1
Senior Business Analyst specializing in AI applications and data analytics, turning complex problems into measurable decision impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Business Analyst with 7+ years of experience in business intelligence, analytics, and stakeholder management across data-driven organizations. I translate complex business problems into actionable insights, operational improvements, and measurable impact—so teams can make better decisions faster.
Recently, I designed and deployed a live Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) AI assistant from architecture to production. I bring analytical depth and product thinking together to build practical AI systems that improve knowledge access and strengthen decision-making.
In analytics enablement, I’ve delivered executive KPI dashboards and structured reporting frameworks that improved leadership visibility into operational performance. I also increased adoption of analytics tools by 40%, reduced leadership decision turnaround time from 7 days to 3 days, and supported real operational outcomes across regional teams.
Right now, I’m building business analytics and AI systems for Family Food Operations—creating a RAG pipeline for semantic retrieval, a real-time conversational teleprompter web app, and KPI tracking to guide pricing and operations. Previously at Goldman Sachs and FirstMeridian, I owned KPI definitions, improved data reliability with validation checks, and streamlined reporting and process workflows using Lean principles.
