Eric West is a Project Manager, GIS Professional, Data Analyst, Cider Expert, Educator at WDM USA Limited. He possess expertise in python, arcgis products, excel pivot, remote sensing, microsoft excel and 3 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "It is exceedingly rare to find an individual like Eric. While trying to think of a single word to describe him, "Swiss army knife" comes to mind. Despite any challenge faced, he seemingly has an infinite number of tools at his disposal to aid in his success. Eric is able to adapt to challenging circumstances with ease, while helping others around him do the same. I was lucky to have Eric train me while I was a co-op at Torc Robotics. He was crucial to my success in transitioning to full time. Without his expertise and willingness to help I would not have gained the skills and knowledge to work at Torc. During our nearly two years together I not only learned the skills for the job, but learned leadership, cross team communication, and task management/organization by his example. In the world of remote work where it's often hard to connect with people behind screens, I can say Eric is one of the special few who can blur the borders of the screen and connect on a more personal level. I consider Eric a friend, and look forward to seeing him find the caliber of success he deserves. Eric would be an incredible asset to any team, and will be dearly missed.", "I worked with Eric for 3 years and witnessed his growth from a pivotal contributor to a reliable leader. His strong technical expertise as a GIS engineer was impressive even before he embraced new projects and opportunities, most of which required a diverse and demanding set of skills. As an engineer in the self-driving space, Eric was exposed to rapidly changing targets and as a GIS expert in this space, he was further exposed to incoming requests from nearly all other engineering teams, since map data are one of the most fundamental building blocks of a successful self-driving solution. Eric leaned into these challenges and took on a role as Scrum Master, during which time his singular communication skills and calm rationality quickly made him a go-to point of contact for a significant cross-section of our organization. As this point of contact, Eric assimilated requests into actionable items and provided helpful perspectives for prioritization. He demonstrated proficiency with organization at all scales, from coordinating efforts of map annotators to managing multi-year plans to create and maintain map data across the contiguous United States. Eric's most remarkable quality is that he was consistently a voice of reason in a workspace overflowing with uncertainty. After transitioning to a Product Owner position, he provided stability and reinforcement for an understaffed team to produce an absolutely stellar work output. Working with him was a pleasure and his absence was immediately painful to all who worked closely with him. He has my respect and full recommendation.", and "I have collaborated with Eric for a few years and he has been one of the most quick, reliable, amiable and effective colleagues I’ve had the pleasure to work with at Torc. His knowledge of GIS and his precise way of explaining GIS topics to other engineers not in the GIS domain has been top notch and greatly appreciated and often commented on by my colleagues. Sad to see him move on to new ventures. But, I know where he arrives they will receive not only a great teammate but definitely an impactful player to their team. Thanks for all the great work and support Eric!"
