Tommy Guy is a Principal Architect in Data Science with 12+ years designing large-scale statistical and data engineering systems, currently applying his expertise at Microsoft and advising AI teams at Clarify and Gable. He blends deep research instincts—developing novel statistical and numerical techniques—with pragmatic engineering across Python, Hadoop/Spark, and distributed systems like Cosmos. Tommy has led production data mining and experimentation platforms, taught Data Science to PMs and marketers, and co-developed community-focused workshops such as Software Carpentry and the Community Data Science curriculum. His background spans bioinformatics and high-performance C++/MPI tools to modern cloud-native ML stacks, giving him a rare fluency from low-level numerical methods to product-facing analytics. Outside of engineering, he cohosts a sci‑fi podcast and brings a builder’s mindset to mentorship and curriculum design. Based in Redmond, he favors intellectually challenging roles where precision, reproducibility, and cross-disciplinary impact matter.
