Former Facebook analytics manager Mohammad Sabah joins Identified

The man in charge of data science and analytics at Facebook has left the social network to take on a similar role and data and analytics company Identified.

Newly-minted Identified Chief Data Officer Mohammad Sabah will direct and develop the company’s patent-pending intelligence technology for recruiters, dubbed SYMAN, which culls unstructured data to create organized, searchable profiles. SYMAN was designed to spot professional data posted in virtually any social media platform. Competing technologies rely solely on user-generated information.

Sabah says there’s nothing else like it:

The work Identified has done on applying artificial intelligence to professional data with SYMAN is unrivaled.
