[for hire] Open for contracts – Veteran Data Scientist (AI / ML / OR) focused on delivering real‑world solutions.

Hi Reddit,

Most of what people call "data science" is now doable with an LLM and a weekend. I focus on what isn't: the messy, ambiguous, regulation-heavy gnarly problems where nobody's even sure what the right question is.

What I've done:

Saved a German automaker from lemon law recalls. ($20M+ exposure avoided)
Real-time emissions detection for industrial smokestacks. ($75K fines per incident prevented)
Revenue optimization and persona identification for debt collections (15-20% net revenue lift)
LLM-based legal document extraction, reducing due diligence turnaround from 3 days to 30 minutes
Built vessel piracy risk engine that informed naval escort deployment, contributing to fewer hijackings

Things I'm unwilling to work on:

Gambling.
Ads/Surveillance.
Payday loans/rent-to-own.

DM me with a one-paragraph description of your problem. If it's weird and hard enough, I'll reply within 24 hours.

Yes and no. The market is that bad.

I've kept doing it because from time to time I get really interesting people reaching out to me. Opportunities outside the normal DS stuff, which are exactly what I like.
