Matt Westcott is a VP of AI and seasoned software engineer with 11 years of experience building production-grade ML and data systems from the infrastructure to the product layer. At Orbital he led the creation and launch of an LLM-based document analysis product that secured multiple six-figure contracts within six months and now scales with a 10+ person team using GPT-4, vector DBs, and agent architectures. He combines hands-on model work (PyTorch, transformers) with data-centric practices, custom labelling tooling, and cloud-native deployment (GCP, Kubernetes, Airflow). Previously he led data teams at Yoyo, shipping recommendation and payment systems and winning multiple company awards for innovation.
