Senior
🎓
Top School
Zoltán Puha is a Senior Applied Scientist with nine years of experience, combining a PhD in Statistics with hands-on roles in experimentation, forecasting and agentic AI for data security. He has driven multi-month, staggered experiments and content-visibility forecasting at Zalando and now applies NLP and agentic approaches to (data) security at Uber. His research bridged Active Learning and Causal Inference, giving him a strong foundation for designing efficient, causally-aware experimentation and prediction systems. Comfortable with Python, R, SQL and production analytics, he moves fluidly between research and applied engineering to deliver measurable business impact. Based in Berlin with a cross-European academic background, he brings both rigorous statistical thinking and product-minded experimentation experience to complex ML problems.
