SEEKING WORK - Data scientist, consulting & fractional leadership, US/remote worldwide, email in profile.

All I want for christmas is some gnarly problems to chew on, otherwise it's coal for Christmas.

I'm a data scientist with 20+ years experience who enjoys gnarly, avant-garde problems. I saved a well known German automaker from lemon law recalls. I've worked with a major cloud vendor to predict when servers would fail, allowing them to load shed in time.

Some of the things I've done:

    - Live chip counting for estmating betting in casinos.
    - Automotive part failure prediction (Lemon law recalls)
    - Server fleet failure prediction allowing load shedding.
    - Shipping piracy risk prediction - routing ships away from danger. 
    - Oil reservoir & well engineering forecasting production.
    - Realtime routing (CVRP-PD-TW, shifts) for on demand delivery. 
    - Legal entity and contract term extraction from documents. 
    - Wound identification & tissue classification.
    - The usual LLM and agent stuff. (I'd love to work on effective executive functioning)
    - Your nasty problem here.

I use the normal stacks you'd expect. Python, Pytorch, Spark/ray, Jupyter/Merimo, AWS, Postgres, Mathematica and whatever else is needed to get the job done. Ultimately it's about the problem, not the tools.

I have years of experience helping companies plan, prototype, and productionize sane data science solutions. Get in touch if you have a problem, my email is in my profile.
