Diego Inácio is a Senior Data Scientist based in São Paulo with 13 years of experience applying statistical rigor and machine learning to revenue growth, demand forecasting, and customer personalization across retail and public sectors. He has led Data & AI teams at Burger King Brasil, delivering experiments and causal-inference driven products that generated over R$5M/year in incremental gross revenue, and now drives uncertainty modeling and hierarchical forecasting at Ambev Tech. Comfortable bridging business and technology, he builds explainable models, ranking/recommender systems, and MLOps pipelines that turn complex analytics into operational decisions. His background includes large-scale public-sector impact—models used to support 3.5M students during the COVID-19 response—and early work in deep learning and generative models for computer vision and audio. Diego combines formal training in data science and strategic business management with hands-on engineering from neural nets to production deployments, and he mentors cross-functional teams to ensure end-to-end value delivery. An investigative modeler by habit, he favors Bayesian approaches and decision-theory frameworks to make risk-aware, actionable recommendations.
