Learn with Dominique Ramirez about Matt Pojman, a data scientist currently at Airbnb. His career has taken him through some of the biggest names in tech, including Meta and Roku; but before all that, he was a student right here in Austin, earning both his undergrad and master’s degrees from the University of Texas at Austin in business and professional accounting. He’s someone who’s always had a love for numbers and problem-solving—and in this conversation, we unpack what fuels that curiosity and drive.
Matt and I actually met back in 2018 and over the years, I’ve watched him navigate career changes, global travel, and a passion for languages—especially keeping up his Spanish fluency so he can connect more deeply when visiting Spanish-speaking countries.
So whether you’re a numbers person, a travel junkie, or just someone figuring out your next move, you’ll take away something from Matt’s story.
