I’m Sudheer Tammini - a finance professional, technologist, and lifelong builder.
For more than 16 years, I’ve worked across FP&A, Corporate Finance, and Business Partnering helping businesses understand performance, navigate uncertainty, and make better decisions.
Along the way, I became increasingly interested in something beyond traditional finance: how technology can change the way we understand and solve business problems.
That curiosity took me from Excel and Data Visualization to Python, Statistics, Machine Learning, Deep Learning, and more recently Generative AI.
I started studying and experimenting with machine learning models years before the current AI wave - not because it was part of my job description, but because I wanted to understand how these systems worked and what I could build with them.
That probably describes me better than any job title.
I like taking an idea, understanding how it works, and turning it into something tangible.
Sometimes that’s a financial model, sometimes it’s an automated analytical pipeline, dashboard, recommendation system, or AI experiment.
Outside work, the same curiosity takes me into photography, electronics, mathematics, science and occasionally building physical things simply because I want to know whether I can.
Why SettingBox?
SettingBox is my workshop on the internet.
It’s where I document things I’m learning, problems I’m exploring, and the systems I’m building - particularly at the intersection of finance, business, data, AI, and technology
I’m especially interested in a question that I think will become increasingly important.
How can we combine human business judgement with increasingly capable technology to make better decisions ?
You will find practical examples here rather than AI hype: financial analytics, forecasting, automation, machine learning, decision systems, data visualization, and occasional explorations simply driven by curiosity.
How I Think
A simple model that changes an important business decision can be more useful than an advanced AI system looking for a problem to solve.
Hence my approach —> Understand the problem —> Build —> Test —> Learn —> Improve —> Share
I’ve been writing here in different forms for years, and the subjects have evolved as my interests and capabilities have evolved, I expect that to continue.
I’m not trying to predict exactly where the technology or my own curiosity will lead next. I’d rather keep learning, building, and sharing along the way.
