Nikhil Pandey is a Principal Data Scientist and former CTO with nine years of experience building production-grade AI systems that blend computer vision, cloud engineering, and real-time controls. He has led end-to-end ML products—from real-time inference for sorting machines to asynchronous APIs and AI agents that cut service turnaround from months to days and reduced human effort by orders of magnitude. Comfortable switching between hands-on model development, data-centric tooling, and platform architecture, he has shipped solutions in agriculture, automotive, and semiconductor services while mentoring learners as an ML coach. Based in Bengaluru, he combines curiosity-driven tinkering (GitHub bio: "just a guy following curiosity") with pragmatic delivery, often focusing on reducing annotation needs and automating quality checks. Notably, he has a track record of turning research ideas into usable apps and patent-assisting tools that boost engineering productivity.
