Senior🎓
Top SchoolSarah Floris is a data scientist and MLOps leader with 9 years of experience building scalable ML and analytics infrastructure across cloud and on-prem systems. She has driven company-wide ML strategy and production deployments—from Databricks and Spark pipelines to real-time low-latency inference—delivering measurable business impact such as multi-million-dollar pricing optimizations and 1,080+ weekly hours saved via LLM integrations. Equally comfortable with hands-on engineering and strategy, she standardizes CI/CD, observability, and reproducible pipelines that cut release cycles from months to days. Her background in theoretical and computational chemistry informs a rigorous, experimental approach to feature engineering, dimensionality reduction, and model validation. As a founder and advisor, she writes and mentors on ML infrastructure best practices and has repeatedly reduced costs and runtime (e.g., ETL cost cut by 80%, SQL query times from minutes to under one minute). Based in Greater Seattle, she blends research-driven curiosity with pragmatic production experience to help teams scale reliable AI.
