What I'm looking for

I am looking for roles that challenge me in data science and AI, fostering growth and innovation.

I am a seasoned professional with over 17 years of experience in Credit Risk, Banking, and Algorithmic Trading. My career has been marked by a commitment to excellence and a passion for leveraging data science and AI to drive strategic decision-making. Currently, I serve as the Executive Vice President at Yes Bank, where I lead the Credit Risk Management team, overseeing a substantial loan portfolio and providing critical risk evaluations to top management.

Throughout my career, I have successfully formulated and optimized trading strategies, managed risk for high-frequency trading firms, and collaborated with global teams to enhance asset quality monitoring. My academic credentials, including an MSc in Financial Engineering and an MBA from IIM Lucknow, complement my practical experience, enabling me to bridge the gap between finance and technology effectively. I am eager to take on challenging roles that allow me to apply my skills in data science and AI to create impactful solutions in the financial sector.
