Senior🎓
Top SchoolAsher Wasserman is a Senior Data Scientist with 11 years of experience turning complex, domain-specific problems into practical data products across healthcare technology, physical sciences, and education. He blends a PhD in Astronomy & Astrophysics with hands-on leadership at xCures and now Abbott, partnering closely with domain experts to translate questions into queries, visualizations, and tools that drive decisions. He favors simple, useful models over complexity, applying scientific rigor and an experimental mindset to production analytics and ML pipelines. Based in Oakland, he brings both breadth across industries and the ability to dive deep into new domains, informed by experience running research projects and leading applied data teams. An observant scientist by training, he often surfaces non-obvious leverage points in messy datasets that unlock better operational outcomes.
