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.

Pre-Conference Workshop Day & Masterclass - November 4

9:45 AM Agentic AI: The Next Level of Artificial Intelligence Capability

Agentic AI systems can make autonomous decisions that transform operations across the value chain. But implementing these systems in complex operational environments comes with real challenges for data governance, AI-generated hallucinations, cost, and AI evals.

Join this workshop to learn how to navigate those challenges and capture the full benefits of Agentic AI, including:

  • Bridging workforce gaps by applying Agentic AI when there isn’t enough human talent to meet demand.
  • Moving beyond simple queries to generate actionable insights and resolution recommendations
  • Hands-on exposure to SynMax’s real-world deployments of Agentic AI in organizations managing highly valuable, security-sensitive data
  • Pinpointing high-ROI use cases where Agentic AI accelerates workflows, reduces bottlenecks, and justifies technology investment
  • Building workforce readiness by identifying skill gaps and designing upskilling programs for effective human–AI collaboration
