Greetings, I'm Sam, a devoted husband and father of two, with a passion for leveraging data to drive meaningful outcomes. I'm empathic in nature, and deeply committed to fostering emotional stability and intelligence in myself and others.
Over the past decade, I've mastered my skills as a Geographical Information Systems (GIS) Engineer, meticulously collecting, processing, and analyzing geospatial data to inform strategic decision-making. Python, R, and SQL turned out to be natural languages for me. My journey has taken me from scientific roles in esteemed institutions like the Institute for Technological Research in Brazil to the U.S. Geological Survey, culminating in a Master of Science Degree in Engineering from the University of Sao Paulo.
In 2019, I transitioned into management roles where I led diverse teams in delivering impactful Projects and Digital Products across multiple industries and regions. From spearheading a Mapping & Navigation SaaS Platform in Latin America to overseeing the development of Urban Mobility Apps in South America and Europe, I've thrived on the dynamic intersection of technology and business. I was able to shape my natural leadership skills and developed a pragmatic attitude towards business prioritization.
Now, I'm seeking new challenges that allow me to leverage my data-driven mindset, data analysis skills, and passion for problem-solving. Fluent in English and comfortable working remotely from Brazil, I'm eager to contribute to an international team that values cultural diversity.
While my career in Brazil has reached a mid-senior management level, I'm open to filling an international entry-level data analysis role that challenges me to perfect my data skills and offers room for growth. I thrive in environments that foster continuous learning and professional development and look forward to making a meaningful impact wherever I land.
Let's connect and explore how I can bring value to your organization as a results-driven data professional.
