Summary
Eugene Smith is a cybersecurity-focused Data Scientist II with 11 years of experience applying machine learning and automation to reduce risk and harden identity and access management at Bank of America. He blends rigorous data strategy and production ML development with hands-on engineering—building detectors, consulting on automation, and measuring security function effectiveness. Previously he automated global operational reporting, prototyped dashboards, and authored an internal task scheduler in vanilla Python, demonstrating a talent for pragmatic tooling that scales. His background in botany and bioinformatics research and long training as a professional violist reveal a multidisciplinary thinker who finds beauty in data and in elegant solutions. Based in Chicago, he is equally comfortable wrangling genomic BLAST pipelines or deploying cyber defense models, often surfacing insights others overlook.
