Axel Fahy is a software and machine learning engineer with 11 years of experience building production-ready systems using Python, Scala and Spark, and deploying models with TensorFlow and PyTorch. He has applied ML to industrial anomaly detection, satellite-based agricultural analysis, and customer email classification, and has hands-on experience integrating threat intelligence connectors into OpenCTI. Comfortable across the stack—from data pipelines and distributed training to CI/CD, Docker and cloud platforms—he favors clean, maintainable code and reproducible workflows (DVC, pytest, mypy). Based in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland, Axel blends academic training (MSc in Engineering) with industry experience at Open Systems and RUAG, and a practical background in financial tooling from Pictet. Notably, his open-source contributions enhanced VirusTotal and RiskIQ integrations and improved metadata handling in threat analysis pipelines, reflecting an appetite for impactful, security-relevant engineering.
