Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMaryam Astero is an AI Research Engineer based in Austin with 9 years of experience translating research-grade machine learning into production systems for scientific and industrial problems. She holds advanced training from Aalto University (PhD work in machine learning) and has a track record developing scalable ML pipelines, from SLURM HPC deployments to city-level mobility analytics and drug-relevant graph neural networks. At CYSS she designed multitask GNNs that yielded up to 28% gains on USPTO benchmarks and built neural-symbolic retrosynthesis and atom-mapping systems, blending symbolic reasoning with deep learning. Her work bridges rigorous academic publication and practical engineering—she has co-authored peer-reviewed papers and operationalized models for downstream use. Now at Genomenon, she brings domain-focused ML expertise to genomic and biomedical applications, pairing deep algorithmic skill with large-scale deployment experience. An understated strength is her ability to move between geospatial, chemical, and bioinformatics problems, applying common ML architectures in novel, domain-tailored ways.
