Juan Pablo Peche - Data Science and AI Leader

About

I build data science and AI solutions that help companies grow faster. From forecasting models and GenAI agents to executive dashboards and KPI frameworks, I bridge the gap between complex analytics and clear business outcomes.

My career spans supply chain optimization, commercial planning, pricing analytics, and marketing — always with the same goal: translate data into action. I've led and coached teams of data scientists and analysts, partnered with C-level and VP stakeholders, and shipped production ML systems used across global organizations.

I hold a Master of Science in Analytics from Georgia Tech and a B.S. in Systems Engineering from the University of Lima. I'm currently based in Baton Rouge, LA.

Leadership Style

Visionary

I set a clear direction and paint a compelling picture of where the team is headed. By connecting day-to-day work to a larger purpose, I give people the context they need to move fast and make confident decisions on their own.

Democratic

I bring the team into the decision-making process. I actively seek input, encourage debate, and make sure every voice shapes the outcome — building genuine ownership and ensuring the best ideas rise to the top.

Together, these styles create high employee engagement, faster innovation, and strong commitment to a clear, shared future — a combination that consistently drives teams to deliver beyond expectations.
