Samur Araujo is a Data Architect and engineering leader with 15+ years of hands-on experience and over 25 years as a software engineer shaping large-scale data and ML systems. He has built data platforms processing petabyte-scale structured and unstructured data, led teams of up to 25 engineers, and driven cloud architectures using AWS, Snowflake and Databricks. His PhD in data integration underpins deep expertise in semantic web technologies, knowledge graphs, NLP and information retrieval—skills he has applied to industrial analytics, recommender systems and decision-support in finance. At Upwork he helped operate a 20PB/month ML pipeline and led migrations and governance across Databricks, SageMaker and Snowflake, while more recently building a data infrastructure from scratch for an EV charging company. Comfortable in both research and product settings, he combines low-level coding across Java/Python/C++ with strategic MLOps, infosec and techops leadership. Colleagues know him for translating complex academic ideas (ontologies, RDF/SPARQL) into pragmatic production systems that improve business decision-making.
