Data Science and Software Engineering

Main tech stack

  • Python 3.6+
  • Apache Spark
  • AWS (EC2, EMR, S3, RDS, ELB, ASG, etc.)
    • ELB/ASG are particularly useful in front of some flask apps I’ve built
  • SQL: Postgres, Snowflake, Redshift, Teradata
    • Been super surprised by Postgres when it comes to speed and versatility.
  • CircleCI, and TravisCI for automated testing
    • Circle internally, and Travis for OS projects
  • git and GitHub
  • bash (the duct tape)
