Archan Ray is an applied research scientist and PhD candidate based in New York with nine years of experience designing computationally efficient algorithms grounded in numerical linear algebra for machine learning. His work focuses on sublinear-time and sublinear-query matrix algorithms with practical applications across model compression, fast learning functions, and studying memorization in neural networks. He has moved between academia and industry—most recently joining JPMorgan Chase after postdoctoral work on matrix sparsification for clinical data at Memorial Sloan Kettering and a long research stint at UMass Amherst. Archan brings hands-on applied science experience from AWS internships and research collaborations at the Indian Statistical Institute, coupling theoretical depth with production-minded problem solving. Outside research he’s a guitarist and DC comics fan, a detail that hints at creative curiosity he channels into both math and engineering.
