About

“I am Dr. Krishna Kottakki, having 7+ years of experience in Operations Research (OR) and Analytics, and expertise in Customer Experience (CX) modeling across diverse domains. Currently, I am working in SLMs, contributing to business development and strategic growth initiatives.” Profile Highlights - Patent Holder in Patient Retention Modeling - Research Scientist – Logistics & Supply Chain (Pilot Flying J, USA): Designed and deployed VRPTW solutions using open-source solvers, improving fleet and manpower utilization by 30%+ - Operations Research Scientist – Swiggy: Built and implemented an integrated CX–BX–DX model for food delivery; developed a multi-objective assignment algorithm reducing delivery costs by ₹3/order (~6%) at scale (1M+ orders/day). Published work in IEEM; recognized with Team Awesome Award Academic & Research Contributions: (100+ citations) PhD, IIT Bombay – Specialized in Gaussian Density–based estimation methods for nonlinear systems over 6 years - Unscented Gaussian Sum Filter (2014): Practical alternative to the Unscented Kalman Filter - Monte Carlo Gaussian Sum Filter (2016): Alternative to Particle Filters Contributed state-of-the-art estimation frameworks with applications in Aerospace, Chemical/Biochemical, and Electrical Engineering Research Philosophy Problems in dynamic systems never end—and shouldn’t. No solution is ever truly 100% complete. The role of an engineer/researcher is to relentlessly pursue the remaining 1%, rather than settling for 99%.
