During his tenure at Integral Ad Science, Tsemekhman scaled his team from just two people to a 40 person team of data scientists, engineers and analysts. At BounceX, he hopes to scale his team in the same manner.

The new VP of Data Science and Engineering added, “Data science is not simply writing a code to predict various events; these positions require people who can truly understand and tell a story using data, and explain behaviors or observations using machine learning techniques.”
