Brandon M. Smith is a data-driven operations and analytics executive with over a decade of experience scaling venture and private equity backed companies across the technology, wellness, and medical sectors. He currently serves as Senior Director of Quantitative Science and Business Operations at Authentrics.ai, an emerging leader in explainable artificial intelligence, where he has led platform development, secured strategic government partnerships, and played a central role in fundraising and technical commercialization efforts.
Prior to Authentrics.ai, Brandon held critical business operations and analytics roles at Danaher Corporation and Hydrafacial, where he built the systems, teams, and data infrastructure required to scale globally and prepare for investor and public market milestones.
