About Stephanie Kirmer

I’m a machine learning engineer with a strong record of helping early and mid stage startups across multiple industries design and deploy ML-powered features that deliver measurable business value.I bridge the gap between technical teams, sales, and customers by translating business needs into intelligent systems that actually work. I’m your sales team’s favorite engineer because I build what helps them sell and take the time to explain how it works. Beyond engineering, I’m passionate about public speaking and teaching. I’ve taught at the college level and regularly present on topics related to applied machine learning, data science practice, and the real-world impact of AI. For speaking opportunities or collaboration, please reach out or visit stephaniekirmer.com for more information.I believe deeply in using data and AI for positive impact — both through the products we build and by advocating for equity and inclusion within the data science community. Supporting underrepresented groups in tech, especially women and gender minorities, is a core part of my professional mission.I only accept connection requests from people I know personally or professionally.
