Summary
Pik-mai Hui is a data scientist with 11 years of experience combining rigorous academic research and industry-scale experimentation, currently designing measurement and causal inference systems for Meta’s Small Business Group. With a Ph.D. in Informatics and a strong triple-BA/BS grounding in mathematics, physics, and computer science, she translates complex statistical methods into production experimentation that informs billions in reported impact. Her research built tools like BotSlayer and contributed to Botometer and Hoaxy to detect coordinated disinformation campaigns, demonstrating a rare blend of algorithm design and real-world deployment. Prior internships across Yahoo, Micron, and Facebook sharpened her strengths in recommender systems, attribution modeling, and real-time source citation for misinformation. Based in Bloomington, Indiana, she brings both academic depth and pragmatic engineering to measurement problems that sit at the intersection of social systems and scalable analytics.
