Head of Data & AI (Ex-Amazon)
Guest Speaker & LinkedIn Instructor


AI tools change fast. The durable skill is knowing how the whole system works: choosing the right problem, giving the agent trusted context, checking its work, showing proof, and handling failure.
Without that standard, it is easy to keep watching videos, copy isolated prompts, and still not know whether your analytics agent is any good.
This two-day live course starts from zero. You will use Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex to set up a safe workspace and complete your first AI-assisted analysis. Then you will build the production path: approved context, validation, proof, human review, correction reuse, and operating controls.
You will learn directly from Paras Doshi, with Sai Kumar Bysani joining as a guest speaker. Sai is the LinkedIn Learning instructor behind Build Your First AI Data Analyst with Claude Code, and this course goes much deeper into what it takes to build a production-ready, tool-agnostic system.
Bring one recurring problem from your work, or use the shared synthetic case. You will leave with a working system and a clear standard for judging the next tool, model, or architecture your team considers.
Move from trying AI tools to building and evaluating an analytics agent your team can inspect, test, and improve.
Set up a safe project in Cursor, Claude Code, or Codex.
Give the agent approved files, context, and clear write boundaries.
Complete one prompt-to-analysis workflow and inspect the evidence.
Define the inputs, output, context, tools, and human boundary.
Save reusable instructions and context instead of starting from scratch.
Prove a fresh session can run the approved workflow.
Add validation, evidence, and Answer, Clarify, Review, or Refuse states.
Test normal, ambiguous, broken, and unsafe requests.
Turn a failure into a reviewed correction that a fresh session reuses.
