Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdriano Almeida is a seasoned machine learning and data engineering leader with 12+ years of experience building teams, platforms and data-driven products across startups and large enterprises in Europe and Brazil. He co-founded Udacity Brazil and scaled its operations, data and localization efforts to serve 15k+ paying students, while later leading ML and data strategy at companies like Zalando, Yara and Kayzen. Known for turning ambiguous problems into measurable outcomes, he has launched ML serving layers, petabyte-scale pipelines and on-prem modernization projects that doubled campaign performance and sped model cycles. Equally comfortable coding (Python/R, Spark, TensorFlow) and setting strategic roadmaps, he blends hands-on experimentation—early game programming and deep learning POCs—with people leadership and operational rigor. He holds a master’s in computer science, is Brazilian/German based in Berlin, and often surfaces non-obvious wins by automating translation and support workflows to unlock disproportionate cost and engagement improvements.
