GermanyWhat I'm looking for
I am an IT Consultant and Data Scientist with a strong focus on leveraging data analytics and AI to drive business value. Currently self-employed, I have developed Requirements Analytics Processes that prioritize customer needs and have successfully registered and tested over 100 platform use cases to demonstrate platform value. My communication and problem-solving skills have been instrumental in teaching AI and prompting skills to upper management at Germany's leading automotive company.
Previously, as a Team Lead and Senior Cloud Consultant at Pexon Consulting, I achieved a team utilization rate of over 90% in billable hours by enabling and teaching technical skills. I also conducted innovation teaching based on Harvard Business School methodologies and automated infrastructure deployment using Infrastructure as Code (IaaC) for a governmental data science platform, significantly reducing downtime and outages. My experience as a Data Scientist at McDonald's Germany involved cleaning and analyzing datasets to identify trends, preparing visual reports, and contributing to data pipeline automation, which reduced manual work by 30%.
