Summary
Chris Sipola is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer in New York with nine years of experience building production ML systems across music streaming, real estate, and regulatory analytics. At Spotify he advances recommendation and large-scale ML infrastructure after earlier roles at Zillow and Google where he shipped visible products and dashboards used broadly across the organizations. He has led small teams and directed data science efforts to deliver text classification, entity recognition, ontology mapping, and economic metrics pipelines, pairing rigorous quantitative training (MS in AI and MS in Applied Economics) with practical production engineering. Notably, he has experience translating forensic market-detection models into tools used by regulators and turning research collaborations into operational learning experiences.
