About Heramb Dharmadhikari

I’m a results-driven Data Science leader with over 9 years of experience building and deploying scalable AI/ML solutions across life sciences, healthcare, and enterprise domains. My expertise spans Generative AI (LLMs), deep learning, time series forecasting, reinforcement learning, and natural language processing (NLP). I specialize in architecting end-to-end data science platforms that solve complex business problems, improve decision-making, and unlock measurable ROI.Currently, I serve as Associate Director of Enterprise Data Science at Alkermes, where I lead initiatives in semantic search, document retrieval, RAG-powered knowledge assistants, and omnichannel customer recommendation systems. Prior to this, I led AI experimentation platforms and next-best-action engines for top global pharma clients at Axtria.What sets me apart is my ability to bridge cutting-edge AI research with real-world deployment—working hands-on with MLOps (AWS SageMaker, GCP Vertex AI, Databricks), transformers (BERT, GPT-4, LLaMA), and scalable frameworks (PyTorch, Hugging Face). I’m passionate about building human-centered, explainable, and impactful AI systems that empower organizations and elevate customer/patient outcomes.I thrive at the intersection of innovation, leadership, and collaboration—mentoring teams, defining AI roadmaps, and partnering cross-functionally to drive enterprise transformation.Let’s connect if you’re building GenAI, intelligent agents, or scalable ML systems that drive real impact.
