About

As the head of the data science team at one of India's largest tech enabled logistics provider, I am driven by high-impact problem-solving . In this role, I ensure my team delivers tangible and measurable outcomes, leveraging my diverse experience. My previous entrepreneurial ventures have equipped me with a broad skill set, from software development to product management and sales, allowing me to approach problems with a unique perspective. My problem-solving approach is centered on usability and product relevance rather than purely on engineering. While I grasp the technical aspects, my focus is on answering critical questions about what to build, rather than how to build it. This involves identifying the right metrics, validating assumptions, evaluating cost-benefit and ROI, and discerning true user demand versus internal wishful thinking. These strategic decisions save resources, reduce frustration, and accelerate go-to-market timelines. I continually refine my process through experience, cross-industry discussions, and learning from both successes and failures. My adaptable, Swiss-knife approach has enabled my team to achieve remarkable results in the logistics sector, both in India (#Bharat) and globally. Feel free to reach out if you think I can assist you in any way.

Principal Data Scientist

Dec 2018Mar 2024 · 5 yrs 3 mos

  • We work cross domain using latest ML techniques in text, image, video and structured data to solve data problems at scale. Some of the problems my team has worked on :
  • Address Localisation, geocoding, disambiguation , de-depulication for getting a match for more than 98% addresses which is core to any logistics automation.
  • Learning based on feedback for serviceability preferences of centres and riders and cost constraints to assign load to the best fit based on these multiple objectives
  • Multiple Computer vision automation tasks for Proof Of Delivery, Invoice Verification, Aadhar, Kyc document verification and anomaly detection.
  • Product Categorisation to cover 95% of products for handling in pandemic, flying safety, return
  • prediction, volumetric weight estimation and downstream use cases with categorisation into 5000+ leaf nodes
  • Prediction Models for RTO, ETA etc.
  • We have three major sub groups and current priorities are address geocoding - location intelligence, estimation of time/distances - trace data intelligence, last mile optimisation - Optimisation Intelligence.
