About

With a vast experience in automotive domain, I’m currently leading a team which is helping bridge the gap between Data and Automotive domains. My team develops customer-centric Data products (0-1 products) by leveraging data collected from cars. We deliver customer-focused data insights and products. We focus on data proximity to users by developing Generative AI (GenAI) solutions like conversational bots (conversational BI), agentic AI solutions. My current work also deals with leading organisation-wide initiatives in Data management and Data quality to better leverage the power of data for decision making and product development. I promote the use of data by evangelising use cases for data and thereby also help in ways to establish Data Culture and Data driven-ness across the organisation. Prior experience in product and program management in core automotive domain has helped me in bridging data with domain, and to unlock value to our customers.
