What Colleagues & Students Say

Industry & Research

LinkedIn & Colleagues

"Oscar combines deep statistical rigor with pragmatic engineering. During his years as Senior Data Scientist at BCP, he consistently translated complex banking problems into high-impact ML solutions."

Senior Data Science Lead Banco de Crédito del Perú (BCP) · LinkedIn

"His work on Peruvian indigenous language translation stands out for both technical creativity and social impact—curating parallel corpora and NMT architectures where standard models fail."

Research Collaborator Indigenous NLP & Machine Translation Track

SQL & BI Instruction

Student Feedback

"One of the clearest technical instructors I've had. Oscar made advanced SQL Server query optimization, execution plans, and indexing immediately applicable to our daily production workloads."

Data Analyst & Alumni Advanced SQL Server Course · WE Educación Ejecutiva

"His sessions on enterprise ETL design with SSIS and dimensional modeling with SSAS bridged the gap between theory and real banking-grade data engineering."

I'm Oscar Gabriel Moreno Veliz, a Senior Data Scientist and AI Researcher based in London. Over the past 5+ years, I have worked at the intersection of high-scale banking analytics and low-resource Natural Language Processing.

Whether deploying machine learning models and A/B experimentation at Banco de Crédito del Perú (BCP), winning 1st place at the AmericasNLP Shared Task on Quechua Machine Translation, or teaching SQL Server, SSIS, and SSAS to engineering teams, I focus on mathematical rigor and measurable impact.

Always researching & building...

Capabilities & Consultation

I can help you with ...

AI, NLP & Hybrid Retrieval

Designing dense and hybrid retrieval pipelines (FAISS, Stella, Matryoshka embeddings), parameter-efficient fine-tuning (LoRA, PiSSA, GaLore), and Neural Machine Translation for low-resource languages.

Enterprise Data Science

End-to-end machine learning models, credit & behavioral scoring, database infrastructure, and A/B testing experimentation backed by 4+ years as Senior Data Scientist in banking.
