ABOUT RYAN BEAUCHEMIN

Most recently, I reported to the CEO at a startup creating agentic AI solutions allowing business users with minimal to advanced coding experience to create scalable machine learning models. Before that, I was the global leader of Data Science at NBC Universal responsible for Personalization and Recommender Systems at Peacock, Sky Showtime, and Showmax, and NowTV with impacts reaching tens of millions of users every day. I have a wealth of experience leading the development of AI and machine learning solutions not only in streaming, but also in retail, having been instrumental in personalization, recommendations, and merchandising efforts at Lowe\'s Home Improvement over 7 years. With degrees in both Astrophysics and Computer Science, I have been able to connect cutting-edge machine learning from academia to industry, focusing on building teams that specialize in neural networks and optimization.Before taking on leadership roles, I was the individual contributor responsible for 50 unique recommendations and personalization algorithms on Lowes.com, automated competitive web crawlers, vendor freight optimization, a best-in-class merchandising intelligence tool including clustering, demand modeling, optimization, and forecasting. In scrappy teams, I was able to set up Kubernetes microservices using Git and Jenkins, and is passionate about Python-based web applications to explain models to stakeholders.
