About

I turn messy operational data into decisions that actually move the needle. As an MBA candidate in Operations, Supply Chain & Analytics at BIM Tiruchirappalli (Class of 2026), I sit at the intersection of data and supply chain building dashboards, forecasting demand, and optimizing networks for real-world impact. Here's what I've done that most freshers haven't: → Reduced lead time by 6% at GMT by designing a spreadsheet-based tracking model, then pitched findings directly to L&T and helped secure an approved deal. → Analyzed 3,000+ government vehicles at the Tamil Nadu State Health Transport Department — uncovering district-level cost-per-km inefficiencies that informed statewide logistics policy. → Built 6 live R Shiny apps from scratch including a dynamic pricing engine for 21 TNSTC Volvo routes (seasonal +40%, last-minute +50%) and a network optimizer for 500+ trip schedules. My toolkit: Power BI · Advanced Excel · R / R Shiny · Six Sigma Green Belt · Demand Forecasting · Network Optimization · Dynamic Pricing · Data Visualization. What drives me is the gap between data that exists and decisions that get made. Most organizations are sitting on operational gold — they just haven't built the right model yet. That's where I come in. I'm particularly drawn to roles in supply chain analytics, demand planning, and operations consulting — at companies that treat data as a competitive advantage, not just a reporting tool. 📍 Chennai, Tamil Nadu | Open to roles across Bengaluru, Chennai, Mumbai, Hyderabad — or remote 📩 santhoshrajs_41@bim.edu Let's connect if you're working on supply chain problems worth solving.
