Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGuilherme Pires is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer in Seattle with 11 years of experience applying ML to scientific and industrial problems, currently building ML tools for biomedical research at the Altius Institute. He previously enabled discovery-driven workflows at the Allen Institute for Cell Science working with high-throughput microscopy and has deep experience with time-series, forecasting, and probabilistic modeling from roles at jungle.ai and DareData. Comfortable across data engineering, model development, and client-facing problem framing, he translates complex scientific and business requirements into practical ML systems. Academically grounded with an MSc and ongoing PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico and an ERASMUS stint at KIT, he brings rigorous research instincts to production work. Colleagues describe him as resilient, team-oriented, and relentless about “wrestling with data until it tells him what it knows.” Outside work he balances creativity and endurance through music, cooking, running and travel—habits that inform his pragmatic yet curious approach to problem solving.
