Francisco Ferrero is an engineering manager and data scientist with 10 years of experience applying mathematics, physics and machine learning to extract insight from numerical and visual data. He transitioned from a PhD and postdoc in neuroscience studying collective animal behaviour to industry roles at Veriff, where he progressed from Data Scientist to Engineering Manager while building production-ready ML and computer vision pipelines. Comfortable across research and product settings, he combines deep domain expertise in behaviour analytics with practical Python engineering for data extraction, analysis, and deployment. Based in Spain, he brings a rare mix of academic rigor (PhD, MSc in AI, BSc in Physics) and hands-on experience turning complex biological signals into scalable, actionable systems. An underappreciated strength is his ability to translate experimental neuroscience methods into robust data engineering practices for identity and behavioural analytics.
