Dean Blank

Senior ML Engineer

I started on BlackRock's money market trading desk, moved into network automation at SAP, and now lead MLOps at Capital One. I design model inference pipelines, distributed training infrastructure, and statistical monitoring systems on Kubernetes and Spark.

Outside of engineering, I play classical piano and write about tech.
