Senior🎓
Top SchoolAidana Massalimova is a Senior Data Scientist and applied AI researcher with seven years of experience building computer vision, ML, and robotics systems that move from lab prototypes into real-world deployments. With a PhD in surgical robotics from the University of Zurich, she has designed real-time surgical navigation and autonomous intervention pipelines using ROS2, Open3D, and vibroacoustic sensing, and developed GCN-based planning on 3D spine meshes. Her background spans neuroimaging, industrial automation, and competition-grade robotic vision, giving her a rare blend of clinical rigor and engineering pragmatism. Known for taking end-to-end ownership, she emphasizes reliability, clear communication, and cross-disciplinary collaboration with surgeons and roboticists. Now based in Zurich and leading data science at Uster Technologies, she specializes in production-ready ML integration rather than just model development.
