Nick Handel is a data-first founder and product leader with a decade of experience turning complex analytics into accessible products for teams at Airbnb, Branch, Transform (acquired by dbt Labs), and now Tempo. He led the creation of ML and experimentation platforms that slashed model development time and scaled teams, and raised and built Transform into a 30-person company and a $25M-funded foundation for the next-gen semantic layer. At Branch and Airbnb he shipped production credit, fraud, and LSTM models and designed feature and logging infrastructures powering thousands of signals and rapid experimentation. Based in San Francisco, he blends quantitative rigor (BS in Mathematics, completed CFA exams) with hands-on product building and a knack for recruiting high-performing teams. An understated detail: he’s repeatedly moved ideas from prototype to acquisition-grade product, demonstrating both technical depth and repeatable startup execution.
