About Me
Currently in Dublin | Relocating to Dubai

Hi, I’m Akankhya Singh.

I am a Data Analyst & AI Strategist dedicated to moving businesses beyond traditional reporting into the era of Agentic AI. With a technical foundation in Computer Science and a Master’s from UCD Smurfit, I specialize in building data systems that don't just "show" insights but "act" on them.

My Focus for the UAE Market: As Dubai accelerates toward its D33 Economic goals, I provide the bridge between Big Data and Autonomous Action. My work centers on:

  • Precision Analytics: Identifying multi-million AED growth opportunities—such as my Dubai-Cashless 2026 initiative, which projected AED 250K+ in annual savings through optimized logistics.
  • Agentic Orchestration: Developing autonomous agents (using LangChain and Python) that automate complex business logic and real-time customer engagement.
  • Cloud-Native Insights: Architecting robust pipelines on Azure and GCP to ensure data integrity at scale.

Relocating to Dubai, I am looking to partner with tech-forward organizations ready to pioneer the next generation of intelligent, automated decision-making.

Retention Pulse Agent

AED 450K Recoverable

Revenue at Risk

AED 1.52M

Customer Churn Rate

14.8%

Projected Annual Savings

AED 450K

Executive Summary

In high-volume e-commerce, customer churn is a silent revenue killer. Traditional analytics report on churn after it happens. The Retention Pulse Agent acts proactively.

  • Identifies 351 at-risk VIPs in real-time using a predictive XGBoost model, pinpointing AED 1.52M in revenue at risk.
  • Orchestrates an autonomous LangChain agent to analyze customer history and generate hyper-personalized retention offers (e.g., discounts, loyalty points).
  • Automates the outreach process, engaging customers before they disengage, recovering AED 450K in potential lost revenue.

Dubai Cashless 2026: Reducing Logistics Leakage

AED 1.70K Recoverable

Annual Logistics Leakage

AED 19.54K

Average RTO Rate

6.73%

Recoverable Savings

AED 1.70K

Executive Summary

In direct alignment with the Dubai Economic Agenda (D33), this project optimizes e-commerce logistics by identifying financial leakage in Cash-on-Delivery (COD) cycles. By analyzing localized delivery data across districts like Dubai Hills, Al Barsha, and JVC, the system identifies AED 19.54K in annual operational waste.

  • The solution utilizes a predictive XGBoost engine to score transactions for Return-to-Origin (RTO) risk, specifically targeting the high-risk COD segment which dominates the return rate profile.
  • High-risk orders trigger an Agentic AI Nudge that proactively encourages customers to secure their delivery via Aani Instant Payments, projecting an immediate recovery of AED 1.70K in previously lost logistics costs.

// Technical Logic Flow

Data Ingestion (SQL): Aggregating transaction logs, district codes (Dubai Hills, Business Bay, JVC), and payment methods.
    └──> Feature Engineering (Python): Analyzing payment method risk profiles where COD shows significantly higher return rates compared to digital alternatives.
        └──> RTO Prediction (XGBoost): Classifying orders as 'Safe' or 'High-Risk' based on historical failure patterns and geographical hotspots.
            └──> Risk Scoring & Segmentation: Isolating the 6.73% of orders causing the majority of logistics waste.
                └──> Agentic Nudge (LangChain):
                    ├── Analyze high-risk delivery context.
                    ├── Generate personalized Aani payment links.
                    └── Trigger automated "Digital-First" outreach to secure the transaction.
Logistics Optimization: Reducing the 'Logistics Waste' waterfall by converting COD friction into secured digital revenue.
