I am a consultant on ML, helping companies get started with this. I can guide you through deciding what projects to start with, how to gather data, how to create an ML pipeline and how to build an ML team to maintain it.

Hi, I'm Luke. I find satisfaction in working with geospatial stuff and on tricky responsive interface problems, figuring out how to work with old code or new codebases through testing and troubleshooting, as well as learning from my colleagues and teaching when I can.

WHY TO HIRE LUKE:

  I'm persistent when it comes to solving problems and troubleshooting, and consider myself fairly good at it; though I know there's a lot I can learn. I’ve done so on one major website that serves billions in transactions annually and for a tiny website that hosts research datasets.
  I like to challenge myself technically and in terms of responsibility; probably not a rare thing to find here on HN.
  I'm approachable, and enjoy collaboration with others. Lean more extrovert, and am comfortable in crowds. Also very welcoming of advice; feedback and practice are the major ways to improve.
  You want someone who is great in emergencies. I don't tend to panic, and have experience resolving issues that legitimately demand attention.
  You want someone who thinks testing with users in real-world settings is worthwhile.
  You need someone who values their own spoken communication skills. I have no experience in public speaking exactly, but I feel like I do ok when discussing or explaining things in a group context and find that it's an important thing to improve.
WHY NOT TO HIRE LUKE:

  You need someone to communicate with customers or handle support inquires daily; not communication in general, just timely replies on a short cadence. This is not a strong point for me.
  You can't let me have any agency over when or how I do work, and that work has little variety to it over a number of quarters. I'm a hard/smart worker, but I'm very cautious of burnout, and need to pick my battles carefully.
  You want someone with experience in management or lots of leadership. I'm interested in taking on some higher level responsibilities, but I don't yet have those skills.
  You want someone who has desirable stress responses to artificial emergencies (crunch time to make arbitrarily chosen tight deadline).  What makes me good in real emergencies also makes me awful in imaginary ones (crunch time because of ill-considered deadlines).
  You want someone who's been grinding leetcode problems. I have a brief and recent exposure to academic DS&A material, am interested in the subject and can build a priority queue from scratch, but I haven't yet passed Amazon's coding test :) (I also have a copy of CTCI, but it's rotting on a shelf)
