Zane Peycke is Head of Machine Learning based in New York with 11 years of experience building AI systems for high-stakes, economically valuable applications. He leads small, innovative teams while remaining a hands-on contributor, focusing on model evaluation, market design, and red teaming across multi-provider infrastructure. His work spans autonomous AI in finance, human-AI collaboration, developer tooling, and production-grade systems such as recommendation engines, opt-in credit scoring, anomaly detection, and custom LLMs for code generation. Earlier research at Columbia and UW produced transformer-based accessibility tools and graph neural network approaches for manipulated media detection, reflecting a strong bridge between academic rigor and production impact. Comfortable with messy, real-world data—evidenced by geospatial and data-cleaning work in development contexts—he pairs physics and MS-level training with practical ML leadership to deliver auditable, safety-minded AI.
