Senior🎓
Top SchoolFaizaan Amir is a data scientist with nine years of experience building production ML systems, currently designing real-time mobile AI at Arccos Golf in New York. He turned phone sensors into best-in-class shot detection and club recommendation models—work that helped Arccos become the official PGA Tour Game Tracker and contributed to a $20M funding milestone. Comfortable across the full ML stack, he deploys models with Airflow, Snowflake, TensorFlow Lite/CoreML and bridges computer vision, signal processing and tabular methods (XGBoost, LightGBM). His background in computer science and econometrics from Grinnell informs practical, statistically grounded solutions like a proprietary Strokes Gained implementation and simulated sensor reconstruction using quaternions. Early roles in bioinformatics, web development and BI show a knack for shipping impactful tools—from blockchain-backed drug tracking to Rails databases used by hundreds—revealing a blend of product-oriented engineering and research curiosity.
