SEEKING CONTRACT WORK | Forward Deployed Data scientist | Canada/Remote Worldwide
Forward-deployed data scientist. 15+ years shipping ML inside messy, regulated environments - automotive, mineral rights, health care, maritime security, logistics. I go on-site (or virtually), dig up the data nobody mapped, figure out what the right question is, then build and deploy. Part Archeologist, part anthropologist, and part data scientist.
What I've done:
   - Deployed an AI validation pipeline for BIM/CAD against 400-page ESG standards, cutting review from days to minutes.
   - Built and integrated a part-failure prediction system into a German automaker's production workflow, avoiding lemon law recalls ($20M+ exposure)
   - Oil & gas well and lease production forecasting. 
   - Stood up real-time emissions detection on industrial smokestacks, preventing $75K-per-incident fines
   - Revenue optimization and persona identification for debt collections (15-20% net revenue lift)
   - Built an LLM-based legal document extraction system (land runsheets), collapsing 3-day DD cycles to 30 minutes.
   - Built vessel piracy risk engine that informed naval escort deployment, contributing to fewer hijackings.

Things I won't work on:
   - Gambling.
   - Ads/Surveillance.
   - Payday loans/rent-to-own.

Email me (in bio) with a short description of your problem. I'll reply promptly.
