Hi folks, I'm Matt. About 7 years of experience working at the interface between data science and backend development. My most recent work has been around optimization of grid-scale energy storage systems - I was the technical lead for the team's first go-live in the ERCOT power market. A lot of experience taking something functional but bespoke (think e.g. a Jupyter notebook from a DS researcher) and applying rigorous software engineering principles to make it modular/scalable/maintainable, and dealing with the problems that result from applying machine learning in the real world (e.g. robustness to forecast error).

Primarily experienced in Python but I've learned a lot of languages at this point and don't mind learning new tools that fit that job.

Not afraid to get my hands dirty deep in the guts of algorithms/statistics/mathematics, my background is in electrical engineering with some signal processing experience. I've got years of math skills crying out to be used!

I'm looking for a role that lets me sink my teeth into challenging problems - some kind of math/statistical analysis/optimization/algorithmic bent would be ideal, I get a great kick out of testing out cutting edge new libraries, implementing an algorithm from a new research paper, that kind of thing.

Would love to connect, even if just for networking.
