Welcome, my name is Damien Benveniste! After a Ph.D. in theoretical Physics, I started my career in Machine Learning and Data Science more than 10 years ago.
I have been a Data Scientist, Machine Learning Engineer, and Software Engineer. I have led various Machine Learning projects in diverse industry sectors such as AdTech, Market Research, Financial Advising, Cloud Management, online retail, marketing, credit score modeling, data storage, healthcare, and energy valuation. Recently, I was a Machine Learning Tech Lead at Meta on the automation at scale of model optimization for Ads ranking.
I am now focusing on a more entrepreneurial journey where I build tech businesses and teach my expertise.
