Dhurin started with a question:
how to deliver impactful data science that tackles core business issues while cutting through the jargon—and do it with integrity ?

We built our team around three essential capabilities:

  • Domain experts who deeply understand intricacies and challenges of financial services; and can clearly communicate with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Data scientists with a passion for uncovering insights from data, thriving in complexity, and adapting their work for practical use. They are our “data whisperers”.
  • Data engineers who ensure the smooth, accurate, and efficient flow of data. They make sure things don’t break down in an ever-changing data environment.

We believe in collaborative, consultative data science, adapting to our clients’ readiness, timelines, and goals. It is often project based. We occasionally augment client capacity as well. Our flexible engagement model makes things easy. This is Dhurin.

Where does the name Dhurin come from?
