Leadership and Strategic Execution
Rao’s leadership is characterized by his ability to deliver large-scale data analytics initiatives that align with strategic business objectives. He recently directed the migration of a national health plan’s monolith analytics platform to Databricks and Power BI, resulting in a million value increase and a 40 percent improvement in data processing efficiency. This initiative required the coordination of cross-functional teams and the establishment of a clear roadmap, ensuring the project’s successful execution within tight timelines.
He previously architected a marketing analytics solution for a national pharmacy, which now generates an additional annual profit. Rao also designed a next-generation data platform for a behavioral health provider, guiding a team of 13 engineers to synchronize technology initiatives with executive strategy and modern best practices. “My leadership approach, clear vision, metrics-driven execution, and empathetic stakeholder management have become the template my firm uses for subsequent organizational changes,” Rao stated.
Innovation and Technical Advancement
Rao specializes in designing and implementing cloud-native data platforms that deliver measurable value and support advanced analytics capabilities. He introduced medallion architecture at scale and implemented Databricks’ bronze-silver-gold pipeline systems, which streamlined reporting processes and enabled business functions to access self-service analytics. These initiatives have positioned organizations to leverage artificial intelligence for informed decision-making and operational improvement.
His work also includes the development of AI-enabled growth funnel analytics for specialty pharmacy operations, identifying customer drop-off points, and optimizing retention strategies. During his tenure at a large wealth management firm, Rao delivered a futures-pairing engine capable of processing 40,000 trades daily, and his redesign of queuing systems doubled the active-user capacity to 100,000. “Across healthcare and finance, my solutions have generated multi-million dollars in cost savings and new revenue while enabling clients to make data-driven decisions,” Rao explained.

His approach to mentoring supports organizational talent pipelines and promotes a culture of continuous learning and professional growth.
His service initiatives have enhanced healthcare outcomes and financial services reliability for millions of Americans. Rao’s projects include optimizing gaps-in-care analytics, modernizing pharmacy marketing systems, and scaling health plan data platforms to meet growing demand. He maintains stakeholder satisfaction scores above 90 percent and regularly briefs executive leadership to ensure data strategies align with patient care and customer value objectives. “My projects directly enhance healthcare outcomes and financial-services reliability for millions of Americans, optimizing member analytics, modernizing pharmacy marketing, and scaling health-plan data platforms,” Rao noted.
