What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can turn complex data into actionable operational insights—building automated reports and dynamic dashboards, doing pricing and performance analysis, and partnering with teams to drive measurable improvements.

I’m a Data Analyst with hands-on experience at Flipkart and Rapido, where I drive operational insights through data analysis and reporting automation. I build automated reporting systems and stakeholder-ready dashboards using SQL, Excel, and tools like Looker Studio and Metabase.

I’ve led pricing analysis, RTO/RVP performance tracking, and returns and loss analysis to identify inefficiencies and improve delivery performance. I also perform inventory and fulfillment analysis, city-wise operational analytics (including polygon share), and collaborate cross-functionally to align insights with business goals.
