Rabindra Nepal is a Principal Data Scientist with a PhD in physics and nine years of experience translating rigorous scientific thinking into production ML and generative AI solutions across corporate, HR, and commercial functions. At Johnson & Johnson he leads end-to-end generative AI application development and data integration to drive workforce innovation and optimize new-asset commercial strategies, while earlier work at Zoetis produced predictive models and computer-vision systems for precision animal health. His background in theoretical and computational condensed matter physics gives him deep modeling intuition and a comfort with complex, privacy-sensitive data from sensors, genomics, and imaging. Rabindra combines research-grade analytical rigor with product delivery—designing pilots, managing regulated data pipelines, and partnering across teams to operationalize ML in real-world settings. An uncommon strength is his fluency across simulation-driven research and applied ML, enabling creative solutions like automated phenotype collection and high-resolution pathology scanning.
