Predictive Customer Churn

A predictive modeling pipeline for identifying customers at risk of churning.

Problem

Retaining a customer is cheaper than acquiring a new one, but interventions only work if the customers most likely to churn can be identified early.

Approach

Standard supervised-learning pipeline — from feature engineering on behavioral and transactional data, through model training and evaluation, to translating predictions into a business-usable risk signal.

Technologies

  • Python
  • scikit-learn
  • XGBoost
  • SQL
  • Feature Engineering

Notes

  • Understand the data before modeling it — feature engineering treated as the core of the problem.
  • Prefer interpretable systems when possible, so predictions translate into explainable business action.
