I hired Saurabh as the first data scientist for a startup using artificial intelligence to serve the global water utility industry. Starting from scratch, Saurabh built our first proof-of-concept models and helped grow the company. Saurabh is bright, hard working and personable. He made significant contributions to Voda and will certainly do the same in any role he pursues. I recommend him and will gladly respond to requests for more information.
