Summary
Peter Vandermeer is a Lead Engineer with a decade of experience building data platforms, DevOps/MLOps, and productivity tooling, currently driving data platform work at CPP Investments in Kitchener. He has a proven track record of turning infrastructure and tooling investments into measurable business outcomes—examples include a Hightouch integration at Faire that lifted Facebook ad ROI and generated over $1M in three months, and fraud-detection pipelines at Manulife that prevented more than $1M in losses. Equally comfortable in Terraform, Kubernetes, Snowflake, and PyPI packaging, he focuses on developer productivity and reliable productionization of ML and streaming systems. He mentors engineers, champions reproducible workflows, and brings an experimental, research-minded background from earlier work in optics and materials that often surfaces in pragmatic, cross-domain solutions.
