Hi, my name is
Maryam
I build AI-native products for the future of work
About Me
I’m VP of Engineering at Payscale, where I lead teams building net-new AI products and core platform capabilities, following Payscale’s acquisition of Datapeople, the company I co-founded and led as CTO for nearly a decade.
What I've built
- Generative AI features in production including a job content generator and NLP-powered real-time editing guidance with entity recognition
- High-performance enterprise API integrations with Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, ADP, and others
- A browser extension that brings AI-powered job content guidance into any system: ATSs, HRISs, LinkedIn, email, and beyond
- Multidisciplinary R&D teams across engineering, product, design, and QA serving global customers including Walmart, Electronic Arts, and Block
Background
- Ph.D. in Biomedical Sciences, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
- Graduate-level People Analytics Instructor, NYU School of Professional Studies
- Speaker at Strata, PyData, Rev2, and others on algorithmic bias, computational linguistics, and the future of recruiting
