@radhakrishnaniyer
Analytics leader delivering AI-driven insights, reporting automation, and data products at scale.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a seasoned analytics leader with a decade of diverse business consulting across consumer goods, retail, manufacturing, and loyalty. I’m known for quick learning, a result-oriented approach, and a proactive bias for action—turning messy business questions into analytics that leaders can use immediately.
In my Head of Analytics role at Omnistream, I led the Business Intelligence and Insights function, owning master data and governance plus feature development engineering. I managed a cross-functional squad, delivered actionable insights with PowerBI and Tableau, and worked in Agile using Jira to maintain momentum from discovery to testing and release.
As an Engagement Manager at Fractal, I lead AI-led digital initiatives for a global CPG manufacturer, focused on LLM-driven insights and Hands-on Copilot adoption. I orchestrate end-to-end reporting automation with n8n workflows and build GPT-based agents to streamline business unit insights, while mentoring a high-performance team of analysts and engineers in AI adoption.
Earlier, at Qantas Loyalty and Quantium Analytics, I delivered strategic insights for member acquisition, engagement, and retention—supported by exploratory analysis, A/B testing, and strong SQL-driven discovery. Across retail projects, I’ve executed greenfield analytics and scaled solutions using techniques like market basket analysis, price elasticity modeling, optimization, and customer decision trees, while continuously coaching teams and earning recognition for proactive ownership and continuous improvement.
