Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDimitri Sifoua is a Chief Data Engineer based in Montreal with 8 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native, data-intensive systems and ML pipelines. He blends software engineering and machine learning expertise—spanning Python, Java, Spark, Kafka, TensorFlow/PyTorch and MLOps tools like Kubeflow, MLFlow and DVC—to move models from research into production at enterprise scale. At the National Bank of Canada he progressed from Senior Data Engineer to Chief Data Engineer, leading architecture and platform work that integrates streaming, batch, and orchestration technologies. His background includes end-to-end product delivery as a full-stack ML developer on GCP and practical research experience applying deep learning and NLP to finance and forecasting problems. Colleagues describe him as an engineer who combines pragmatic production instincts (CI/CD, Terraform, Kubernetes) with a researcher’s curiosity for novel models and data-driven experiments.
