Summary
Kyle Colangelo is a Data Scientist and economist with eight years of experience applying causal inference, experimentation, and machine learning to drive measurable value at scale for millions of third-party sellers. At Amazon he built production causal models (causal forests, DML, XGBoost), designed experiments robust to interference and low power, and led an A/B testing bar-raiser team that reviews 100+ experiments annually. He combines rigorous academic training (PhD in Economics) and published research with hands-on engineering—optimizing pipelines to cut runtime by 95% and delivering production products like a budget allocation optimizer for 10K+ sellers. Now at Google, he continues to bridge causal methods, ML, and product strategy, translating complex technical findings into actionable business decisions. An often-overlooked strength is his track record mentoring teams and institutionalizing experimentation standards that scale across organizations.
