Summary
Kumar Abhishek is a Senior Data Scientist with eight years of experience applying machine learning and reinforcement learning to improve customer experience and business outcomes. He holds an MS by Research in Computer Science from IIIT Hyderabad, published at AAMAS, and has hands-on research experience from IISc on combinatorial sleeping multi-armed bandits—a niche theoretical area he has translated into practical ML solutions in industry roles at Target, Maersk, and now Roundel. Comfortable moving models from research to production, he blends deep probabilistic thinking with product-focused engineering to deliver measurable impact. Known for rigorous academic foundations (9.75/10 MS) and a habit of exploring hard problems, he values collaboration, continual learning, and building systems that generalize beyond benchmarks.
