Business and data analyst building executive BI, SQL models, and AI-assisted reporting for strategic decisions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a business and data analyst with 4+ years building executive-facing BI, SQL-driven data models, and AI-assisted reporting workflows. I turn complex data into strategic decisions for leadership, with a strong focus on reliability, speed, and clarity in reporting.
At Daraz–Alibaba Group as a Senior Business Intelligence Analyst (Strategy & Operations), I built scalable analytics across fulfillment, transportation, and last-mile operations across multiple markets. I automated Monthly Logistics Business Reviews using AI-assisted workflows, engineered SQL data models and ETL pipelines to reduce reporting delays by 35%, and standardized KPI definitions across Ops, Finance, and Commercial to improve decision-making efficiency by 30%. I also built and scaled a cost-recovery analytics solution that caught inaccurate weight declarations, generating USD 10K in weekly savings per venture.
Earlier, I led multi-market logistics cost modeling at Daraz–Alibaba Group as a Cost Performance Associate and automated cost-performance simulations using Python and Google Sheets, cutting manual effort by 90%. At Maqsad, I improved Weekly Active Users by 30% through customer and business performance analytics, boosted onboarding success by 30% with journey and funnel analysis, and supported conversion (+15%) and revenue (+20%) gains. I also built machine learning models as a Junior Data Scientist, and I enjoy applying econometrics and ML (e.g., VAR modeling in R and sales forecasting) to produce actionable insights.
