Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEvan Fields is a research scientist and data-driven engineering leader with 11 years of experience translating operations research and quantitative methods into product and startup impact, currently working at SecureBio after leadership roles at Zoba. He completed a PhD at MIT focused on latent demand estimation for urban mobility and novel ways to embed domain expertise into simulation models, then took those skills into industry productization and team-building. Evan blends rigorous modeling, algorithm development (including a patent-backed stint at Foxtrot Systems), and pragmatic software delivery to improve public health, urban mobility, and decarbonization outcomes. Based in Cambridge, MA, he pairs high-performance code and systems thinking with oddball but telling interests—bikes, bread baking, and a particular dislike of conference-room CO2—that keep his work human-centered and empirically humble.
