Rahul Verma is the Director of Technology at SynMax. He was one of SynMax’s early hires, following previous job roles as a data scientist in the energy sector. He made several foundational contributions to both of SynMax’s flagship products - Hyperion and Theia, building out time series, computer vision and now agentic models, and the architecture to deploy them at scale.
Rahul has a PhD in Petroleum Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, and an undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering. He has nearly a decade of experience implementing machine learning solutions throughout the energy sector value chain—from downstream refining to upstream production, reservoir management, and geoscience applications.
Agentic AI systems are capable of making autonomous decisions that can reshape workflows and unlock efficiency across the energy value chain. Yet adopting these systems in practice comes with real challenges: most AI agents are not built with the industry’s requirements for data governance, operational security, and subject-matter expertise in mind.
