Welcome!
Hi, I’m Alejandro — Data Scientist (PhD-trained)
I work at the intersection of rigorous modelling and practical decision support — building reproducible Python/SQL pipelines and ML systems that turn messy data into outputs people can act on.
My background is in quantitative ecology and climate-change science, where I built uncertainty-aware models to understand how living systems respond to environmental change. In industry-focused data science, I bring the same strengths: careful assumptions, clear validation, and decision-ready delivery.
What I do
I build end-to-end analytics and ML workflows that prioritise reliability and usability:
- define measurable questions (metrics, cohorts, success criteria)
- engineer clean, testable data pipelines with validation and artefacts
- train and evaluate models with transparent trade-offs
- communicate results clearly (what changed, why it matters, what to do next)
Featured work
Job Intelligence Engine — parses thousands of real data job ads into a skills taxonomy and market signals, then recommends best-fit roles and a prioritised upskilling plan.
- Skill demand & salary signals by role/family
- Best-now vs stretch role job recommendations
- Ranked upskilling priorities (positioning lift)
Stack: Python • NLP embeddings • XGBoost/LightGBM • Streamlit • reproducible pipeline & persisted artefacts • SHAP
