About Sanjeev Nayak

I’m a Data Scientist who enjoys turning raw data into something people can act on. Over the years I’ve worked across analytics, product, and a whole lot of “can you automate this?” moments. I like solving problems that actually help people get things done—whether that’s building smart data tools, simplifying workflows, or creating small AI hacks that save time.I’ve worked with SQL, Python, cloud warehouses, dashboards, and most recently a mix of NLP, audio processing, and NL2SQL/NL2Pandas projects. Basically, if it involves data or making systems smarter, I’m interested.Outside work, I’m usually exploring new cities, trying local food, taking photos, or meeting people at random events and startup meetups. I travel light, ask too many questions, and enjoy discovering what people are building.Always open to conversations around data, AI, and interesting problems.
