Hamza Farooq
Founder & Adjunct Professor | 15+ years | Google | UCLA
I am the founder of Traversaal.ai, an LLM-based startup dedicated to building scalable, customizable, and cost-efficient AI solutions for enterprises. My work focuses on practical, production-ready AI—far from the flashy, overhyped demos that fail in real-world environments.
With over 15 years of experience in machine learning, my career has spanned three continents and seven countries, working across industries like tech, telecommunications, finance, and retail. As a former Senior Research Manager at Google and Walmart Labs, I have led teams specializing in optimization, NLP, recommender systems, and time series forecasting.
Currently, I serve as an adjunct professor at Stanford and UCLA, where I bridge the gap between academic research and real-world AI applications. My passion lies in educating the next generation of AI practitioners and enabling organizations to build enterprise-grade AI solutions that are scalable and efficient.
