About

https://ishan-chourey-profile.netlify.app/#about As an AI generalist and analytics leader with 8+ years of experience, I specialize in translating complex data into strategies that drive business growth. I’ve led data science, predictive analytics, and insight-generation initiatives across global organizations—spanning logistics, CPG, automotive, and tech. At A.P. Moller Maersk, I drive the development of predictive models, data products, and actionable dashboards that power commercial and customer strategy. I’m also focused on scaling AI adoption across teams by enabling non-technical users to engage with data meaningfully. My previous roles at Dell Technologies, Fractal Analytics (supporting AB InBev and Colgate), and Volvo Eicher honed my skills in customer intelligence, forecasting, ML model deployment, and multi-stakeholder consulting. What sets me apart is my ability to straddle the technical and strategic: I speak Python and SQL as comfortably as I do product and business. I bring a product mindset, data storytelling fluency, and a deep belief in cross-functional collaboration. I’m now focused on expanding my impact at the intersection of AI, strategy, and organizational capability building—and on growing into a thought leader in applied GenAI and insight-led transformation.
