Summary
Tarek Atwan is a seasoned analytics and AI leader with over 20 years of experience delivering data science, machine learning, and cloud-first data engineering solutions across government, enterprise, and education. As an executive advisor, corporate trainer, and CTO-level technologist, he blends hands-on engineering with strategic AI adoption—helping clients modernize data lakehouses, implement MLOps/LLMOps, and deploy GenAI tools like LangChain and LLamaIndex. A prolific educator and author, he wrote the Time Series Analysis in Python Cookbook (now in Japanese) and produces award-winning courseware for institutions such as USC, ASU, Pepperdine, and Pluralsight. He holds multiple cloud and ML certifications (AWS, Azure, Google) and has led large-scale bootcamps and advanced training for Fortune 500s and government bodies. Less obvious: he pairs deep temporal analytics expertise with product-building experience, having co-founded startups and led a visual time-series forecasting platform to simplify production modeling for non-Python users. Based in Amman, he operates at the intersection of advisory, R&D, and hands-on teaching to democratize practical AI skills.
