Shalini Agarwal, Director, Engineering and Product at LinkedIn

I recently caught up with Shalini Agarwal, Director, Engineering and Product at LinkedIn, to discuss how we need more data scientists to make our applications smarter; however we can make them more efficient and accomplish more with data scientists by having automated workflows and tools. These tools can be used by non-data scientists to leverage the established workflows and remove the repetitive tasks from the mountain of tasks expected from a data-scientist. Shalini is an engineering and product leader with 15+ years of experience building software for web, mobile and enterprise. She is passionate about motivating teams to bring innovation and build scalable products that delight customers. She has a track record of delivering business results, successful products that involve multiple cross functional teams.
