Senior🎓
Top SchoolUdeepa Meepegama is a Research Scientist with eight years of experience building and deploying ML systems, currently working on high-level planning at Nuro in San Francisco. She brings a strong research-to-production track record from roles at Novoic—where she trained and deployed foundation models for early Alzheimer’s detection from speech—and academic positions at Oxford focused on unsupervised behavioral clustering, multi-agent RL, and generative modeling of market dynamics. With an MSc in Machine Learning from UCL and an MPhys from Oxford, she blends rigorous physics and ML training to design novel model architectures and scale multi-GPU training. Colleagues describe her as someone who moves ideas from prototype to robust deployment, with a knack for applying research techniques to real-world health and robotics problems.
