About
I'm a pricing actuary in Bengaluru, India, currently working on a high-net-worth home insurance portfolio for the Australian market. I use data, statistics and code for most of what I do.
How I got here
- Engineering. I studied Mechanical Engineering (B.E.), which gave me a habit of first-principles problem solving.
- Software. I started my career as a developer at Infosys, building production systems in Java and later Python, R and React.
- Actuarial. I moved into actuarial work, first in life insurance at LIC of India, then P&C pricing at EY GDS and now in HNW property pricing.
Because I've done both jobs, I can build the model and also the pipeline, tool or interface that puts it to use.
What I do
- Frequency, severity and retention modelling (GLM, GBM, SHAP)
- Large-loss treatment, truncated and censored claims fitting, reinsurance layer adjustments
- MGA and bordereaux data management, portfolio reviews and monitoring
- AI engineering: RAG with pgvector, agentic pipelines, MCP integrations, full-stack Python/React
Credentials
- Fellow, Institute of Actuaries of India (FIAI)
- IFoA Fellowship via the Mutual Recognition Agreement: in progress
- B.E., Mechanical Engineering
