Experienced R&D Leader in Data Science, Software Development
I have been passionate about deriving deeper insights through data analysis for 20+ years, well before 'data scientist' was a well-known moniker. Since undergrad, I have been interpreting data to better understand and control the underlying processes at work, often working with devices and instruments as the source of data. Over the course of my career, I have moved fluently between theory and implementation: I have created algorithms and software for several commercial products, as both a collaborative leader and individual contributor. I have assumed leadership roles for several data analytics and software development teams, covering the spectrum of R&D and product commercialization. I excel at building bridges between my team and other groups within the organization that are crucial to the team's success. My technical specialties include: • Data Science: optimal estimation and control, image and video analysis, signal processing, machine learning; MATLAB, SQL, Intel IPP, OpenCV, familiar with R • Software: Waterfall, Agile, Scrum; C#, C++, C, familiar with Python, Java, VB.NET, assembly (various) • Medical Devices: quality systems (21 CFR Part 820, ISO 13485), design controls, electronic records (21 CFR Part 11), risk analysis (ISO 14971), 510(k) submissions, FDA process audits, CE Mark/MDD
