Summary
Sebastián Suárez is a VP of Machine Learning with a decade of experience applying cognitive neuroscience and rigorous scientific theory to real-world ML problems, currently leading ML at OnCorps to automate back-end financial services. Trained as a computational cognitive neuroscientist (PhD, UCL), he brings a rare blend of experimental design, neuroimaging-informed ML, and production-focused model deployment. His career moves from academic research on decision heuristics and belief updating to building ML teams and systems, evidencing both deep domain expertise and practical leadership. He has organized research seminars and discussion groups and has hands-on experience with neural similarity measures and classic classifiers from his time at The Alan Turing Institute. Based in London, he combines social-anthropology roots with neuroscience rigor, which helps him translate complex human-centered signals into scalable automation. Colleagues describe him as a leader who turns nuanced scientific insight into robust, applied ML products.
