I am a data scientist and software engineer with seven years of experience in research, consulting and freelance development.

I have build data products using the tidyverse and r-lib libraries, functional programming, data visualisation (ggplot2, plotly, htmlwidgets and interactivity (shiny)). Throughout, I have focused on bringing software development best practices to reproducible science, using defensive programming, test-driven development, CI/CD (Travis, now migrating to Docker and GitHub Actions) and source control management (git, GitHub).

I am particularly interested in DataOps and CI/CD (around Docker), exploratory and bayesian analyses, visualization and unsupervised learning.

My deepest expertise is in the R ecosystem, Linux and docker, but I also have a working knowledge of web frontend technologies (HTML5, CSS, JavaScript) as well as Python. I am not interested in working with proprietary stacks (especially SAS, Tableau, Power BI).
