SEEKING WORK - Remote (based in Chicago) (part-time)
Who I can help:
People/companies/startups looking to gain some value out of the data they're collecting, specifically around user behavior.
Experience:
First data hire at GrubHub and currently leading the data analytics team. I take pride in being a data generalist (can do the data science or data engineering thing, while keeping business value in mind - just because some 'discovery' is interesting, doesn't mean it's valuable for the business).
Prior to GrubHub, I spent three years as an analytics consultant at one of the Big Four.
Technologies:
My day-to-day stack is some combination of: Python + pandas + MySQL + Amazon Elastic MapReduce + Hive + Amazon Redshift.
Others: HTML, CSS, d3js, R, Flask (python), nearly all RDBMS platforms (SQL Server, Oracle, Postgres, SQLite), Google Analytics
Projects:
- Open Source contributions to pandas (<a href="https://github.com/pydata/pandas" >) and tweepy (<a href="https://github.com/tweepy/tweepy" >)
- My blog (<a href="http://www.gregreda.com" >), which has been at the top of HN several times (tutorials on web scraping, pandas, unix commands)
