Summary
Ankur Jain is a Senior Data Scientist based in New York with ~9 years of experience building production-ready personalization, forecasting, and clustering solutions across retail, telecom, and healthcare. He has hands-on expertise in PySpark pipelines, dimensionality reduction (PCA), large-scale bisecting K-means clustering on 40M members, and feature engineering that shrank feature sets from tens of thousands to under two thousand for robust modeling. At Tesco he delivered ML-driven demand forecasts reducing dairy waste by 30% and at Fractal drove feature-rich fraud/waste analytics for top insurance and telecom clients. Comfortable collaborating with cross-functional and offshore teams, he translates complex data into actionable dashboards and automated pipelines that improve business KPIs. He combines academic rigor from Northeastern with practical engineering instincts from early software roles, making him equally effective at prototyping models and driving them to production.
