L. Mark Coty
@lmcoty
AWS Data Engineer and former mathematics professor specializing in data engineering and ML.
What I'm looking for
I am an AWS Data Engineer with 20+ years in quantitative research and mathematics, combining academic rigor with practical data engineering, machine learning, and statistical inference expertise. I build scalable cloud data architectures, ETL pipelines, and predictive models using AWS, Python, and SQL.
At MHA Tracker I led an AWS region migration and deployed a serverless multi-tenant SaaS, automating OCR receipt processing and implementing least-privilege IAM and reproducible environment scripts. I also built secure AWS infrastructures and real-time ETL pipelines for product launches, delivering dashboards and analytics that informed business KPIs.
As an educator and academic manager I designed data-driven courses, ran A/B tests, analyzed large assessment datasets, and earned tenure for contributions to curriculum and student success. I collaborate across technical and non-technical teams to translate raw data into actionable insights and scalable solutions.
