TOMER MANGOUBI

I am a PhD graduate of Wharton's Applied Economics program, specializing in labor, personnel, and behavioral economics. My research spans applied microeconomics, including labor economics, personnel economics, and development. Some of my recent work examines how firm-level heterogeneity — driven by differences in technology adoption, productivity, and market structure — shapes compensation contracts and earnings inequality.

I am currently a Machine Learning Economist on Instacart's economics team, where I conduct applied economics R&D at the intersection of econometrics and ML engineering, with end-to-end ownership from project proposal through model training to production deployment and maintenance. Previously, I was an Associate at Analysis Group, where I was responsible for econometric and simulation-based analyses in complex antitrust matters. I completed my BS in Mathematics and Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT.
