Remote with travel for meetings as needed post-Covid
I'm a data scientist with seven years of experience spanning both data science and data engineering. I’m available in a range of capacities, whether that’s helping to push an existing data science/ML project across the finish line or coming in and starting a new project from scratch.
I’m particularly interested in helping companies design and implement a data science strategy prior to making a first data science hire. At most top-tier startups, the management team recognizes the need to build a data science organization. But getting started on that process is difficult, and far too many startups watch their first data science hire fail to deliver results.
Success follows from articulating the objectives and needs of the data science team, and that’s where I can help. By developing goals, ensuring data infrastructure is in place, and identifying needed skills, we can set your first hire up for success and avoid costly mistakes like hiring a deep learning engineer when what you really need is someone who can make dashboards.
