Summary
Sergio Camelo is a machine learning engineer and computational economist with nine years of experience and a Stanford PhD in Computational Mathematics, now applying large-scale ML at Instacart. He brings deep expertise in numerical methods and applied math from a long Stanford research trajectory and prior industry internships at Meta, Airbnb, and Rappi that bridged theory to production. As a teaching fellow in ML and data visualization, he combines strong communication skills with hands-on model development and an operations-research mindset for optimizing real-world systems. Based in New Haven, he is comfortable moving between research-grade algorithm design and product-focused engineering, with a track record of shipping data-driven solutions in both academic and industry settings. An under-the-radar strength is his background in computational economics, which informs principled approaches to decision-focused ML and large-scale optimization.
