I worked with Shakir in several regards, during the last few years at Cummins. I have always been impressed with Shakir’s leadership. He has a gentle style of leading people with different skill sets, to work together and accomplish things that individuals could not build on their own. Shakir is honest and hard working. I consider him as a proactive leader who is innovative and talented at collaborating. I hope that we have the opportunity to work together again on projects in the future. I am thankful for the opportunities that Shakir has given to our team over the years.

I had the pleasure of working with Shakir in the Analytics and Artificial Intelligence team for the past three years. Recognizing that our team of 90 people could not support the AI/ML efforts of an 65,000+ person organization, our Self-Service Data Scientist program was born. Shakir lead this program by developing the rollout strategy and roadmap for Cummins, along with the tactical aspects of training individuals to elevate them from minimum to intermediate knowledge.
The most important aspect of this program were the new analytical models that the participants would create. This has allowed for hundreds of people with no prior knowledge of AI/ML capabilities to use their specialized knowledge in their current function, and apply diagnostic and predictive models.
