Shantanu Kumar

Data Scientist, JP Morgan & Chase

Hello, my name is Shantanu Kumar. I am a dedicated and skilled Data Scientist with over five years of experience in the fields of machine learning, deep learning, and advanced analytics. I graduated from IIT Kharagpur. My professional journey began at Quantiphi Analytics, where I honed my skills in machine learning engineering, working on complex projects such as OCR for handwritten text detection and exploratory data analysis.

I then transitioned to Accenture AI, where I played a pivotal role in various projects, including retail analytics for a leading Southeast Asian company, intelligent revenue growth for a telecom firm in Dubai, and cross-selling insurance products for a PSU bank in India. My work involved developing customer lifetime value models, building value-based segmentation, and creating propensity models that significantly boosted target shopper engagement.

Currently, I am a Data Scientist Associate at J.P. Morgan Chase. Here, I have developed fraud risk mitigation strategies, optimized fraud rule performance tracking, and automated home lending loss forecasting model outputs. My efforts in these areas have resulted in substantial cost savings and process efficiencies for the company. I also lead training initiatives and collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to drive seamless migrations and improve operational workflows.

I am passionate about leveraging data science to solve complex problems and drive business value. My technical expertise spans Python, PySpark, SAS, TensorFlow, Keras, and cloud platforms like AWS and GCP. I am always eager to take on new challenges that allow me to apply my skills and contribute to impactful projects.

Outside of work, I enjoy exploring new places and playing sports, which help me stay balanced and energized. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my experience and skills to a new role where I can continue to grow professionally and make meaningful contributions.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”
