Summary
Nicolas Torzec is a research and engineering leader with over nine years of experience building large-scale AI/ML systems for knowledge graphs, e-commerce product graphs, and transaction understanding. He has led cross-functional teams at Yahoo and Cardlytics to extract, reconcile and enrich noisy web and financial data into robust entity and commerce graphs that power search, recommendations and merchant-level analytics. Known for bridging deep research in information extraction with production-ready engineering, he has repeatedly shipped platforms for schema alignment, entity reconciliation and semantic search at internet scale. Now based in the San Francisco Bay Area and currently working at You.com while directing AI/ML for Cardlytics' commerce graph, he combines academic rigor (PhD coursework and early NLP research) with hands-on system design and operationalizing ML. An understated strength is his long track record of bootstrapping graph initiatives from prototype to critical production infrastructure across both web and payments domains.
