Nazir Saleheen is a Machine Learning Engineer with a decade of experience building large-scale, production ML systems and academic-grade computational models for health behavior detection from noisy wearable sensors. He combines deep research credentials—PhD work analyzing 350,000+ hours (250 billion data points) across 650+ participants and publications in top venues—with hands-on production experience at Google and Meta, where he engineered pipelines processing hundreds of billions of daily data points for security and privacy applications. Nazir’s work spans end-to-end system design, from study protocol and IRB approvals to mobile data collection, modeling (CNNs, LSTMs, autoencoders) and deployment of tools like puffMarker used in multi-institution smoking cessation studies. He also pioneers methods to quantify and protect behavioral privacy in time-series sensor sharing, bridging ML-for-health innovations with responsible data practices. Based in San Jose, he pairs strong software skills (C/C++, Java, Python, Android) with grant-supported interdisciplinary collaborations and a track record of translating messy real-world signals into reliable, actionable insights.
