SEEKING WORK - Remote preferred
(Buzzword: Data Scientist)
I'm primarily interested in freelance work, but full-time is also a possibility, and I'm willing to relocate. I'm currently in the Bay Area.
I have several years of experience in data mining, statistics, and machine learning (doing everything from quantitative trading and pricing, to building recommendation engines and mining search engines). I pick up new languages and technologies quickly, though I work primarily with Ruby, Python, Java, R, Rails, and Hadoop. To use a buzzword, you can think of me as the prototypical 'data scientist' -- I love doing everything from building dashboards to display data (Rails, Sinatra, Javascript), gathering data and cleaning it up (Ruby, Hadoop), exploring and analyzing data for patterns (R, Python), and coding machine learning algorithms for production (Java).
