Supply Chain Analytics, Complexity Reduction (Configuration & Parts). Developed Tools & Solutions (AI/ML) and leading product teams in Configuration and BOM space- Product Owner for 3 very insightful Analytical products.>> Product 1 : Envisioned & built a ML (python-streamlit) based Configuration slicing & dicing solution for effective complexity reduction, which became a central AI solution integrating with other ML products. Leading a DevOps team & a Data Science team of 10+ in a CI/CD setup; guiding the efforts across Data Pipelines, AI/ML tuning, effective UI/UX design, cascading KPIs, collaborating with cross functional IT teams to effective data sourcing and to build impactful feedback of product\'s outputs.>> Product 2 : Maintained & Enhanced a (ML) substitution model. DevOps team size 3 at peak. Introduced variability & new end points to make it a service.>> Product 3 : Enhanced a BOM Solver algorithm (Parts & Configurations) & introduced variability, built Data Engineering pipelines, scoped & constructed APIs, implemented RPA style dashboard deployment (avg, 50 dashboards per week), lead DevOps (5 members at peak) to construct Request Manager UI and to host the backends in a complicated system architecture (GCP,HPC,etc,). Improved the request to report time from 1 or 2 weeks to few hours. With variable end points, the product is now a service, integrating with other tools & solutions.
