Senior🎓
Top SchoolOran Looney is a Lead Machine Learning Engineer with 15 years of experience applying pragmatic, production-focused data science across healthcare and insurance. He has led teams and built end-to-end ML systems—training Keras neural networks, automating data pipelines, containerizing models, and maintaining performance through platform migrations. At Healthgrades he created novel applied models (LDA for provider specialties, ARIMA/GAM for traffic forecasting) and tooling to keep models at the cutting edge; more recently he scaled analytics and AI projects for midmarket healthcare companies as a director at Frazier. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, he combines deep quantitative training (MS in Physics and MA in Mathematics) with hands-on software engineering dating back to Epic and early development roles. Known for pragmatic problem-solving, he focuses on delivering measurable business impact from models rather than academic novelty.
