I help companies leverage their data and bootstrap the right ML operations and teams. I help setup data pipelines, explore data available and what data to seek out, setup feature pipelines, integrate data science operations with other teams (e.g., engineering, marketing, sales, and product), deploy models, and continuously measure success.

Created and led LifeBell's data science team, which included working as an individual contributor, hiring the rest of the team, and then coordinating between executive leadership and the rest of the team. Worked with engineering on architecture, data and feature pipelines, and interfaces to models. Created ML services pipeline, including serving inference.

Both manager and individual contributor on teams responsible for machine learning platforms (training and deployment), balance-prediction models, and deep learning for assessing risk. Coordinated between the models' end users (e.g., sales and credit risk teams), engineering, marketing, and product management office. Worked with and managed talented folks.

Prototyped and developed apps for CNN, adult swim, TNT, and NBA on novel architectures, including Samsung's and Google's first smartwatches, second-screen automated content recognition (ACR) experiences, and Roku. Created federated 2FA login infrastructure. Started cross-organizational machine learning initiative between ad sales and properties such as.

Created Lustre plugin for HDFS that let scientists analyze data in HDFS without having to transfer 10s to 100s of terabytes between filesystems, which cut hours to days from chemical and engineering simulations' analysis. Sole developer on $2M project. Evaluated Ceph, Gluster, and other filesystems for use.

I was involved with IBM's team developing Blue Cloud in summer 2008, where, among other things, I streamlined virtual machine deployments to cut the generation of a private cloud by more than 75%.

US

Led work on management plane, security, cryptography, test infrastructure, and bandwidth management.
