Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFred Yang is a Senior Data Scientist with 11 years of experience building production ML systems and data pipelines across tech and finance, currently leading data science efforts at Indeed. He has a strong track record of turning models into measurable business impact—examples include a chatbot response-suggestion engine that lifted message adoption 44% and job applications 40%, and a contextual-bandit dial recommender that generated $35M annualized incremental pretax profit at Capital One. Fred blends ML research and engineering: he led LLM topic-modeling to convert a monolithic bot into a multi-agent workflow, cut dead-end loops by 38%, and engineered batch-compatible workflows to reduce OPE processing time by 99%. He holds an MS in Information Systems Management from Carnegie Mellon and a BEng from Nanyang Technological University, with international study stints in Japan, Switzerland, and Japan’s Tokyo Institute of Technology. Known for pragmatic, cross-functional execution, he has led small teams, partnered with product and engineering, and operationalized analytics for international launches that multiplied hires in pilot markets. Colleagues describe him as a data-driven problem solver who surfaces non-obvious levers—like refining hire-signal classifiers to double international signal coverage—to unlock product and analytics value.
