Sujan Devare

I'm the type of person who builds a startup out of frustration when my phone gets stolen, or writes predictive models to convince international border authorities to change their staffing strategy. With an engineering foundation in CS & AI, I spent my placement year at the Port of Dover realising that I don't just love looking at data; I love the chaos of turning it into decisions and products people rely on. I thrive on the grind of validating ideas, untangling legacy infrastructure, and shipping products at speed.

Predictive Operational Modeling

~30% projected delay reduction4yr+ model in active useForced French Border Force (PAF) stand-down

Developed dynamic passenger processing and arrival prediction models featuring real-time lane-input variables. These long-term simulations (projected for 4-5 years of continued use) proved that 100% rigid Entry/Exit System (EES) checks would cause critical bottlenecks. This equipped operations with the exact data needed to negotiate with ferry operators and force the French Border Force (PAF) to stand down rigid checks, effectively mitigating massive queues.

Enterprise Data Strategy

Exec-level IT roadmapVendor cost analysis

Spearheaded product discovery and cost-analysis for an enterprise-wide reporting architecture. Presented strategic vendor recommendations and standardized data collection benchmarks to executive leadership, establishing the foundational roadmap for the IT ecosystem.

Product Delivery & BI Infrastructure

Scaled across 4 departments~25% faster reporting cyclesLegacy ERP migration

Managed the end-to-end delivery of secure, role-based Power BI analytics. Beginning with the successful migration of legacy ERP data from Azure Data Factory, I subsequently scaled reporting solutions across four different departments, designing advanced visualizations and heat maps that drove operational data literacy and adoption.

Executive Reporting & Compliance

Direct COO & CEO reportingEES national border trials

Delivered urgent, data-driven traffic flow analyses directly for the COO and CEO. Collaborated alongside Home Office personnel during the critical Entry/Exit System (EES) national border trials, aligning the port's data infrastructure with government compliance standards and ensuring operational readiness for new international regulations.

Venture & Operational Leadership

Co-Founder & Product Lead — Lockify

Greenwich Entrepreneur Of The Year Challenge Finalist

Top 5out of 270 applicants

The idea for Lockify was born out of frustration when my phone was stolen, and the built-in tracking tools failed. I took this concept to the university's flagship Stage 0 startup pitching competition. Alongside my team, I directed the initial product discovery, conducted extensive market research, and wireframed shutdown screens to validate the idea. We pushed through intensive brainstorming and critical reality checks from our mentor, Jonathan Tate. Ultimately, we pitched our validated business model and research to executive judges to secure early-stage development funding, successfully earning our spot in the Top 5 Finals out of 270 applicants.
