Senior🎓
Top SchoolAbhishek Roy is a Data Scientist with 8 years of experience specializing in optimization and last-mile routing systems, blending deep research roots with product-driven engineering. He led the development of a production routing engine that delivered 10x speed improvements and helped secure $2M+ ARR, later growing it into a full last-mile routing suite as Principal Data Scientist at Locus. He has managed teams of Operations Research PhDs and engineers, organized large-scale optimization events like DiscreteHack 2024, and judged solutions for 400 participants. Before industry, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Cologne, publishing on topological phases and inventing graphical algorithms—skills that inform his rigorous approach to algorithm design. Trained at UC Berkeley and with a PhD from UIUC in Physics, he combines mathematical depth with hands-on system delivery across Asia and North America. A practical problem-solver, he’s comfortable taking first-from-scratch prototypes to production-grade, high-impact systems.
