Anand Umashankar is a Lead Data Scientist with 11 years of experience specializing in computer vision and deep learning, currently driving ML initiatives at ThreeV Technologies after leading ML/AI efforts at Sharper Shape. He has a strong engineering background in Python, OpenCV and Android development, and a proven track record of scaling production pipelines to process petabytes of aerial LiDAR and imagery—achieving an eightfold speedup in production. Anand blends research and product instincts from roles at Aalto University with practical delivery, having led end-to-end projects from requirements and POCs to deployed models and team OKRs. He championed the open-sourcing of ECLAIR, a LiDAR dataset, reflecting a commitment to collaborative research and reproducible ML. Trained through Master’s programs in Data Science and a Udacity Deep Learning Nanodegree Foundation, he pairs rigorous academic grounding with hands-on systems engineering.
