Background

About Bernardo Castro

I am an Industrial Engineer specialized in Business Intelligence (BI), Data Science, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), which have become the foundation of my career. Over the past years, I have been leveraging advanced analytics, data visualization, automation, and forecasting techniques to deliver operational efficiency, data-driven decision making, and measurable results across diverse business environments.During the SAP ERP implementation, I reduced report extraction and update time by 40%, using ABAP, Python, SQL, and Advanced Power Query (M). This achievement not only increased productivity but also ensured data reliability to support a critical system transition.In demand planning, I reduced WMAPE by approximately 9% within a single fiscal year, by applying deeper data analysis, stronger cross-functional collaboration with the commercial team, and structured feedback loops with sales. This improved both quantitative and qualitative forecasting accuracy.Together with the finance team, I developed statistical models that achieved 99% accuracy in revenue forecasting, enabling more reliable decisions and stronger strategic alignment. Additionally, through a capacity planning study at a branch, I contributed to increasing the average of +5 installations per month within 3 months, optimizing resources, workforce planning, and delivery schedules.My current goal is to keep expanding my expertise in Business Intelligence and Data Science, applying solutions that combine data analysis, process optimization, and business impact to drive continuous improvement.Email: bernardosantosdecastro@gmail.comPhone:+55 51 98443-0723Keywords: Business Intelligence (BI)| Data Analytics | Data Visualization | Demand Planning | S & OP | Power BI | SQL | Python | Data Science | ERP SAP | Forecasting | Automation | Process Improvement | Supply Chain Optimization | Artificial Intelligence (AI)| Machine Learning | Predictive Analytics | Business Growth | Continuous Improvement
