Download Résumé

From the lab bench to the boardroom.

I'm a consultant at PwC India in the Oracle practice. The route here wasn't direct — I started in nanotechnology research, did applied AI and full-stack work at a software company in Kerala, ran operations for an oilfield services firm in Abu Dhabi for almost three years, and went to IIM Udaipur for an MBA before joining PwC.

That mix tends to show up in how I work. I'm at home in SQL and Python; I'm also at home in a stakeholder meeting translating what the data is actually saying. The problems I find most interesting are the ones where both have to happen at once.

Implement Oracle Fusion for enterprise clients in financial services and manufacturing — primarily AP, AR, Procurement, and Payments. The work moves between PL/SQL on the database side, Fusion configuration on the application side, and OIC for the integrations between them. Plus the Python scripts to handle whatever the standard tooling can't.

Five-person team, three new products shipped, and a new automation vertical built from scratch. The flagship was an ML system for the Amadeus ticketing platform that predicted airline fare drops at 72% accuracy.
