Summary
William Zhou is a Senior Data Scientist with nine years of experience applying machine learning and operational analytics to improve clinical workflows and patient outcomes in leading healthcare institutions. Based in New York City, he has a strong track record at Memorial Sloan Kettering and NYU Langone building real-time ICU decision support, sepsis monitoring, and predictive models that reduced resource use and improved care quality. Fluent in Python, R, SQL and cloud/big-data stacks (AWS, Spark, Databricks), he pairs hands-on engineering—deploying models into EMRs and dashboards—with process improvement using Agile and Lean methods. He also brings product sensibility from a Product Management certificate and a history of turning messy clinical text into actionable features via NLP and automated pipelines. Notably, his projects span end-to-end delivery from feature engineering and model ensembles (Kaggle top 1%) to production monitoring, reflecting both research rigor and operational impact.
