Summary
👤
SeniorNick Settje is a Lead AI Engineer with 8 years of experience building high-availability ML systems and petabyte-scale data platforms across Europe and the US. He has delivered production-first AI at scale—from real-time anomaly detection for cross-border payments to terabyte-scale ETL pipelines for 7+ million cellular customers—combining deep ML and MLOps expertise with cloud-native infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform). A Stanford MS and Cornell BA alum, he bridges research-grade algorithm development with pragmatic engineering, having managed cross-functional teams and product vision for distributed teams across five countries. Notably, he migrated 100+TB off legacy Hadoop to a GDPR-compliant AWS datalake while cutting TCO by ~90% and built automated inference, drift detection, and retraining pipelines designed for under an hour of downtime per year. Based in Amsterdam, he brings a rare blend of academic rigor and operational discipline to make ML systems reliable, explainable, and cost-effective.
