Fernando Carazo is a Senior Data Scientist and AI Engineer with over a decade of experience applying machine learning and deep learning to healthcare and pharma problems, currently accelerating product innovation at Veeva Link Data Science. He builds end-to-end ML systems—from neural embeddings and graph ML to LLM agents and vector databases—deploying and monitoring models in production with MLflow, Docker, and AWS. His background blends rigorous academic research (PhD in AI and computational biology, visiting researcher at Stanford) with hands-on industry delivery, including precision medicine projects and large-scale clinical ETL pipelines. Fernando is an active open-source contributor (lead developer for skforecast’s deep learning forecasting module) and teaches AI and ML as an associate professor, uniquely bridging research, education, and product engineering. He’s fluent in PyTorch/TensorFlow ecosystems, Hugging Face tooling, and cloud-native deployments, and has a track record of translating complex biomedical data into actionable insights for clinicians and commercial teams. Based in Pamplona, he combines scientific rigor with practical product focus, often favoring explainable AI for real-world clinical adoption.
