What I'm looking for

I seek a senior leadership role to build data teams, drive analytics and AI product roadmaps, establish governance, and partner with CXOs to scale data-driven revenue and decisions.

I am a Strategic Data & Analytics leader with 14+ years of global experience building analytics, ML and data products that enable C-level decision-making across Europe, the USA and India. I have architected data strategies and unified KPI frameworks for large marketplaces, led data governance and delivered GenAI and predictive models that materially improved revenue and operational efficiency.

I have built and scaled multi-disciplinary analytics teams, transitioned analytics to COE models, and partnered with product, marketing and operations to ship data products and self-service platforms. My work includes establishing single sources of truth, reducing costs through infrastructure migration, and driving measurable business outcomes such as significant GMV uplift and improved routing and recommendation performance.
