Summary
Bhishan Poudel is a Senior Data Scientist with a PhD in Physics and over a decade of experience building production-grade AI and analytics solutions across healthcare, insurance, and pharma. He designs and deploys end-to-end LLM and generative AI services—often as the sole senior AI lead—combining prompt engineering, custom JSON parsing, MLOps and Azure/Databricks pipelines to turn complex data into real-time WebAPI products. His work has delivered measurable business impact, including multi-million dollar gains, 20%+ forecast improvements, and automation that saved hundreds of human hours. Equally comfortable in deep model work (BioBERT, time-series, anomaly detection) and operational plumbing (Snowflake, PySpark, Bedrock), he emphasizes ethical AI and deterministic LLM behavior for mission-critical tasks. An avid community contributor with 17k+ Stack Overflow reputation, he also maintains a personal data science library that automates routine analyses in a few lines of code.
