Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDiego Gris is a Senior Data Scientist II at McKinsey’s ACRE team in Denver, combining nine years of applied data science, remote sensing and agronomy to deliver advanced analytics for agriculture. He builds end-to-end geospatial and computer vision solutions—regularly moving from drone and satellite imagery to production models that predict yield, maturity and other key traits. His background spans academic research and teaching at North Dakota State University and international R&D at Embrapa, giving him strong domain knowledge in crop science and precision agriculture workflows. Diego is hands-on with tooling from Pix4D and Python/R to cloud-scale data engineering, and he focuses on automations that save clients time and money. An uncommon strength is his ability to bridge field operations (flying UAVs, soil sampling) with production ML systems, ensuring models are grounded in real-world agronomic practice.
