Summary
Stuart Davie is VP of Data Science at Peak with nine years of experience scaling AI and data teams and a deep research background in computational physics and molecular dynamics. He progressed through technical and leadership roles at Peak—from Data Scientist to VP—shaping production ML systems, analytics, data engineering, and customer-facing insights. His PhD and postdoctoral work produced the world’s first molecular geometry optimisation using a fully machine-learned force field, reflecting a rare blend of rigorous scientific research and production software development. Stuart mentors teams, introduced standardized model validation practices in research, and brings hands-on experience in algorithm development, hyperparameter optimisation, and deploying models into delivery pipelines. Based in Australia, he combines academic rigor with product-focused delivery to turn complex physical and business problems into scalable, AI-driven solutions.
