Head of AI/ML Strategy and Solutions

Abhilash Pillai

As Head of AI/ML Strategy and solutions at SBL, I build on the foundation to bridge advanced AI capabilities with real-world needs, collaborating with universities, research institutions and private organizations across the USA and Europe. With over 18 years of experience working in the genealogy industry, I have also developed a deep understanding of how families, records, culture and belief systems intersect at scale. This combination of domain depth and technical leadership enabled me to envision FamilyaConnect, India's first genealogy and spirituality ecosystem designed to serve families and communities as living, evolving systems. I remain hands-on in translating this vision into practical, data-driven solutions that deliver measurable value.
