Senior🎓
Top SchoolSaheel Ahmed is a data scientist specializing in geo-information and Earth observation, with 8 years of experience building and operationalizing large-scale geospatial datasets for climate risk and environmental monitoring. He led data teams at Blue Sky Analytics to deliver 10+ global datasets and engineered AWS-based pipelines that process hundreds of gigabytes daily, doubling ETL efficiency and cutting research-to-production time in half. His hands-on expertise spans satellite imagery (optical and SAR), TensorFlow, GDAL/QGIS, Docker, and CI/CD—enabling real-time inference systems and validation against ground truth used by institutions like IIT Delhi, NASA and ECMWF. Saheel combines academic training (MSc candidate at University of Twente; BTech in Computer Science) with startup pragmatism, routinely presenting work at FOSS4G, ISRO NRSC and international research forums. He’s particularly effective at turning noisy remote-sensing inputs into production-ready insights for air quality, wildfire emissions, water extent/quality and groundwater depletion. Beyond technical delivery, he’s driven by a mission to make environmental data actionable and has measurable impact in team velocity, pipeline robustness, and published white papers.
