Nick Ruta is a Senior Data Scientist with 13 years of experience blending machine learning, software engineering, and data visualization to solve scientific and business problems. He has built and deployed ML-driven products across startups and enterprise teams—most recently at Corva after leading predictive analytics and optimization efforts at QRI and ComboCurve. His background includes production Java/Spring services, cloud-native data pipelines, and research-grade time series and NLP work from Harvard that probed Shakespearean authorship and stellar similarity detection. Comfortable moving models from research to Dockerized, cloud-hosted systems, he combines rigorous academic training (MS in Computational Science & Engineering) with hands-on engineering for scalable ML. Based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, he brings a rare mix of applied research curiosity and production-focused delivery.
