About KP
Hi, I'm Kailash Padhiyar — a passionate and forward-thinking Business Intelligence and Data Analyst with a strong foundation in data science, machine learning, and financial modeling. Currently based in Bochum, Germany, I am pursuing my Master’s in Business Intelligence and Data Science at the International School of Management, where I combine academic learning with real-world data-driven problem-solving.
What sets me apart is my ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights that drive business value. With a deep understanding of AI-powered forecasting, predictive modeling, and real-time analytics, I help organizations make smarter decisions faster. I specialize in building machine learning models for financial applications, designing interactive dashboards with Power BI and Tableau, and automating analytics workflows to increase efficiency and accuracy.
During my academic and professional journey, I’ve worked on diverse projects ranging from ETF price prediction using deep learning, to real-time performance monitoring, and credit risk modeling using tools like Python, KNIME, SQL, and BI platforms. These experiences have sharpened my ability to work across the full data lifecycle — from data extraction and cleaning to visualization and decision support.
Beyond the technical skills, I bring a strategic mindset shaped by my background in Business Administration. I understand not just how to analyze data, but why it matters in a business context — whether it’s improving operational efficiency, managing risk, or identifying growth opportunities.
I’m also a strong believer in continuous learning. I regularly pursue certifications, explore new tools, and stay current with trends in AI, analytics, and cloud computing. My work style is collaborative, agile, and results-focused — I thrive in environments where innovation, structure, and creative problem-solving go hand in hand.
When I'm not deep-diving into data or building models, you’ll find me exploring market trends, experimenting with new technologies, or learning about behavioral economics and business strategy.
If you're looking for someone who can connect the dots between raw data and real-world impact — let’s talk.
