Senior🎓
Top SchoolNavar Nascimento is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer and Data Scientist with over eight years of experience bridging academic research and industry-grade AI deployments. He holds a PhD and two master’s degrees, has authored 20+ scientific papers, and led cross-functional teams to deliver production models in Computer Vision, NLP, and forecasting. Notably, he developed ML systems for Brazil’s largest food manufacturer that preserved 67.21% of volume during out-of-stock events and reduced non-rupture cases by 17.45% while maintaining a 9% false alarm rate on Azure Databricks. At LAPISCO he built one of the largest body-composition image datasets and shipped 50+ model versions, combining research rigor with MLOps practices (MLflow, Docker, Kubernetes). Fluent across Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, Hugging Face, cloud platforms, and edge tooling, he brings a rare mix of published research, hands-on deployment, and measurable commercial impact.
