Summary
Angela Ambroz is a Staff Data Scientist specializing in causal inference with 11+ years of experience bridging economics and data science across academia, international development, and tech. She designs and operationalizes rigorous experimentation and non-experimental causal methods at scale, including Double Machine Learning and large-model production runs (e.g., 1.5B spam predictions). Angela has rebuilt experimentation platforms, authored team playbooks for self-service causal inference, and translated complex statistical bias issues for C-level stakeholders. Her background as a development economist and researcher with J-PAL and field experience in multiple countries informs a pragmatic, policy-minded approach to measurement and impact. She combines strong ML/MLops chops (Python, dbt, Kubernetes, MLflow) with a talent for clear technical communication and teaching. Outside of work she’s a multilingual science-fiction writer with an unusual penchant for holographic principles and right-to-repair advocacy.
