Varun Sagar Theegala's Linkedin Analytics

With nearly 4 years in healthcare and pharmaceutical analytics, I design data-driven strategies, scalable products, and actionable insights that drive business impact. As an Associate Consultant at Eli Lilly in Product Analytics, I deliver HCP and patient analytics solutions that boost efficiency and deliver measurable outcomes across multiple brands. My career has spanned HCP/HCO targeting, next-best-action (NBA) strategy, patient journey and leakage analysis, global market insights, and analytics product development. I combine technical expertise with product thinking and cross-functional collaboration to create solutions that are both impactful and scalable. Highlights of my journey include: - Led and evolved multi-semester HCP targeting and NBA programs for launch and in-line brands, cutting delivery timelines by 50% and enabling consistent stakeholder alignment. - Designed and implemented dynamic targeting frameworks that drove a 4% revenue uplift for immunology brands. - Built and deployed analytical products in Python, Flask, SQL, and Tableau/Power BI, standardizing processes and saving 1,000+ hours across teams. - Developed OTGS dashboards tracking patient journeys and leakage trends across US and 10+ global markets, guiding retention strategies and reducing drop-offs. - Mentored and upskilled peers on analytics tools and methodologies, embedding best practices across teams. Currently pursuing a Master’s in Data Science (AI/ML specialization) from Deakin University, with the goal of transitioning into a data science role by mid-2026 and applying advanced machine learning to solve high-impact problems in healthcare. My professional philosophy centers on building scalable solutions that merge analytics with business strategy, enabling teams to make faster, clearer, and more confident decisions.
