Summary
Noah Xiao is a COO and seasoned AI leader with 11 years’ experience building high-impact data science and ML capabilities across retail, banking, and consulting. He led one of Australia’s largest data science centers at Coles, scaling teams of 140+ and delivering production-grade recommender systems, optimisation, forecasting, and ML/MLOps frameworks that drove measurable commercial value. Now at jahan.ai he’s focused on AI twins that not only mirror retail and supply-chain processes but autonomously optimise decisions to unlock operational upside. His technical roots (Master’s in Business Information Systems, CS study at Stanford) and hands-on background in modelling, optimisation and engineering let him bridge strategy, governance and delivery. He has a track record of competitive data science success (multiple datathon wins and Kaggle Master tier) that signals both technical depth and product-minded experimentation. Based in Melbourne, he combines enterprise-scale leadership with a builder’s curiosity for turning complex analytics into repeatable business advantage.
