Top School
Kenneth Foo is a Senior Software Engineer and applied scientist with a decade of experience building production ML systems and product-focused data science across fintech and growth teams. He has driven personalization, bandit-driven experimentation, and uplift/heterogeneous treatment effect analyses at Wealthsimple and now applies those skills to applied science at Braze. His background spans end-to-end ML delivery—model simulation, Azure ML pipelines, AutoML evaluation, and data reconciliation—paired with hands-on mentoring of bootcamp students. Earlier work as a process engineer gives him uncommon strength in modeling physical systems, optimization, and operational rigor. Kenneth writes on practical data science projects and publications, signaling a habit of turning research curiosities into reproducible work.
