Shiney Sooraj is redefining how organizations turn hidden workforce signals into foresight, helping leaders act on data they didn’t know they had. As Managing Director of Product & Development at ATOSS Software SE, she leads the delivery of Workforce Intelligence solutions that transform dormant “dark data” into actionable insights. In a landscape where absenteeism alone cost German companies €26B in 2023, Shiney’s work equips HR, Finance, and Operations leaders to detect absence patterns in minutes, uncover turnover drivers, and act before risks escalate. Her 20+ years of experience span SAP, JPMorgan, and Walmart Labs, where her performance engineering leadership drove a 50% YoY revenue surge.
She holds patents in analytics, multiple industry awards, and advanced credentials from MIT and IIM Bangalore. Beyond the enterprise, her social sabbatical in Uganda designed data systems that continue to empower youth education initiatives. Shiney is also a recognized advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion.
She credits yoga for resilience, painting for creativity, and parenting her teenage son for sharpening her empathy as a leader. At UNLEASH, her session “From Data to Decision” will show how organizations can transform a data graveyard into an early-warning system—proactively shaping the workplace with foresight rather than hindsight.
