Artificial Intelligence Masterclass, NYU - Intellibus

FYI, I’ll be co-leading an AI Master Class for about 20 senior leaders at NYU’s School of Professional Studies in September and October!  We have a fantastic team of expert AI panelists too, and I’d love to have you join the program. If you’re keen then drop me a note and I’ll make sure a spot is saved for you.  Also, feel free to send this link onto others who will benefit from joining. This course will be the #1 AI course in the US for senior leaders and will change the way you think about AI and how we tackle its opportunities and threats. A big part of this course is the close collaboration between industry and academia. More info here: https://www.aimasterclass.com/

I love being the host for the Atomic Soul Podcast where I explore the very things driving humanity forward. This isn’t your average “AI is taking over our civilization” show - it’s something much more rare that’s sure to make you reevaluate your perspective on controversial topics. Each week we’ll hear from the world’s most interesting people, like corporate giant execs and people bending the mold. It’s at this very intersection of tech and the brain where we expand our consciousness.

Podcast Host

Dataiku

I will provide straightforward industry perspectives and insights, thought leadership on the future of AI, and share the stories and best practices of Dataiku’s growing enterprise customers. I will help accelerate the company’s strong recent momentum, including: 
Over 500 customers with 150+ on the Forbes Global 2000 list
95% customer retention rate with Forbes Global 2000 customers 
Industry recognition includes being named to the Forbes Cloud 100 and Forbes AI 50 lists, top 10 in the Data50, and Snowflake’s ML/AI partner of the year.  
Certification as a Great Place to Work, with 94% of Dataikers saying the company is a great place to work (compared to 57% of employees in a typical U.S.-based company)

You can’t have fun if the fundamentals aren’t working and I was impressed with Dataiku’s growth, enterprise customer count, customer satisfaction, and one collaborative platform. 

I want to work for a market leader and believe that Dataiku is indeed the leader that industry analysts and 500+ customers say they are and I want to invest my life force into this company. 

I am very excited about the next year, and my excitement has only continued to increase since joining. This company has the soul I was seeking.

Chief AI Strategist

DataRobot

As Chief AI Strategist at DataRobot, I work closely with our innovation team, marketing, sales, and product to ensure innovation is aligned with our product roadmap/strategy. I also help nurture strategic partnerships for the innovation team, can we combine like-minded visionaries to accelerate the future? Can we inspire the next generation by combining world-class innovation with brilliant storytelling? I love working with brilliant technologists and amplifying them with genius creatives. Magic happens between these two types of experts. Some of that work was showcased with our 10,000 cast piece which ended up being nominated for a Webby award. Very excited about what we have in the pipeline this year.

Artificial intelligence is already changing our world for the better. Unfortunately, too many homegrown projects are failing giving the rest of the industry a bad rap. Too many executives are naive to the opportunity. The gap of "do-ability" isn't being crossed in the mind of the business executive. AI should inspire, it should transform, everyone should wake up in the morning excited about what AI could do to automate their business and lift our society to new innovative heights.

Chief AI Evangelist

Zeff

co-founder, Chief AI Officer

Working crazy hours to deliver the world's best machine and deep learning to product companies with the least amount of effort. Our goal was to be easiest to use, but surprisingly we are winning on scalability, accuracy, and implementation time. If you need any machine learning in 2017/2018 reach out to see if you are a fit for our current offering. Great press to come.

co-founder & Chief Data Officer

HireVue

Building out HireVue's data science team with the talent needed to execute on our technical data roadmap. We currently have one of the best deep learning teams in the state and by next year it could be one of the top 10 deep learning teams in the country. I love the work we are doing, the opportunity we have, and the success we are seeing. Working with brilliant people is critical to job satisfaction and we have that at HireVue.

Chief Data Scientist

Is it possible to take something as unstructured and complicated as a digital interview and predict the quality of the candidate response? The answer is yes! Imagine what you can do with 100,000x more data than a resume. Leading HireVue's data science team to success on algorithm development for the HireVue insights IRIS product, a new data frontier for sure.

Principal Data Scientist

Metaheuristic Solutions LLC

Metaheuristic Solutions is a optimization consulting company with the world's leading metaheuristic optimization algorithm, the x algorithm. The new algorithm was developed by Ben Taylor and was made available in 2011.

Founder/CTO

IM Flash Technologies

Using Matlab, R, and Julia to develop multivariate and single variate models and analysis (MVA/UVA) for tool fault detection. These models are then used to shut down tools used in the semiconductor manufacturing process, notify stake holders, and mark up lots for real-time detection analysis (RDA). Projects also include building complex yield models from tool data and automating alarm rule setup as well as fab wide tool fingerprinting to identify rogue behavior even if alarms are not present.

I am also very busy on the web app side building PHP/Mysql wrappers to give engineers access to big data solutions. Hoping to switch soon to python/django/postgres. Also using custom built SQL queuing system that I designed on the backend to manage user loading for job requests.

I watch the watchers, I direct the learners. 

I am passionate about machine learning. My life's mission is to further the boundaries of what is possible with data science. I spend as much time as I can working with deep learning, NLP, and all forms of data science. I currently have a passion project I am managing where I am combining the power of genetic programming with deep learning to automate network design. I think there is a trend happening in data science where human expertise and creativity are being replaced by powerful new methods (i.e. deep learning, big data). 

I am most well known for my machine learning work with the data science community and with HireVue. With the community, I enjoy posting opinions on jobs and tutorials on ML methods. I also enjoy speaking and presenting to all types of audiences. 

I've enjoyed working across engineering, product, sales, marketing, and customer success. This wider POV has helped shape the way I think about innovation, from the innovation farm to the customer's table ;)

Product Manager

Witful Vision

After a year of working as a professional trainer and freelancer, I started using my accumulated knowledge and experience for helping businesses build, manage and market data & AI products.

Data Product Manager

Data Scientist

After finishing my own skills development process, I started taking on freelancing projects from professionals and businesses of different fields. I also took time to train people who wanted to be data analysts or data scientists.

In a short time, I decided to organize my work by establishing a platform with the name of Witful Data. This platform aimed to bring together professionals and businesses who wanted to learn and use data science and analytics to reach their goals. It sounded like a great idea back in the day. A data business that helped businesses do it all. It sounded too good to be true and it actually was. I sadly failed to make this business reach its goals. 

This failure was partially due to my lack of focus. The array of services I provided were just too broad. It lacked specialization. My outreach was low. It seemed like the project as a whole was doomed. Yet, in those dark hours, a new light appeared before me. 

I decided to specialize in one area: Data & AI Product Management. 

With the lessons I learned from my mistakes and a new decision, I built Witful Vision to help businesses build the next awesome and efficient Data | AI product.

Founder

Having worked with a wide range of professionals during my data and tutoring career, I decided to make good use of this experience and knowledge. I helped +15 people from different cultures, age groups and professional backgrounds take the next step into career transition or transformation.
