Senior🎓
Top SchoolJay Kachhadia is a Data Science Manager at Paramount+ with 11 years of experience building production ML systems that turn petabytes of behavioral and content data into actionable forecasts for streaming, acquisition, and retention. He leads content forecasting and subscriber-behavior models that directly inform programming and growth strategies for brands like Paramount+, CBS, and MTV, and has a track record of improving operational accuracy (e.g., an anomaly detector that outperformed Adobe Sensei during his internship).

Trained at Syracuse University and NIT Surat, he combines academic rigor with product sensibility and a knack for communicating insights—publishing popular pieces on Towards Data Science—while balancing creative interests like skateboarding and visual effects from an early entrepreneurial stint.
