Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlireza Morsali is a Staff Data Scientist in Vancouver with eight years of experience applying advanced signal processing, machine learning, and applied mathematics to real-world problems across industry and academia. With a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from McGill, he has driven research and product work spanning beyond-5G communications, deep learning for signal processing, and ML systems engineering at startups and enterprises. He is known for a principled, scientific problem-solving style—prioritizing understanding the core problem and selecting the right tools rather than forcing familiar methods. A skilled debugger and out-of-the-box thinker, he bridges theory and production, having moved from doctoral research and academic roles into senior ML engineering and leadership positions. Unusually for a data scientist, he also has entrepreneurial and creative roots (founder & CEO experience and cinema studies), which inform a pragmatic, interdisciplinary approach to complex technical challenges.
