I have a PhD in operations research---essentially, I solve optimization problems. You can give me a real-world problem and I can translate it into a mathematical model that can be solved (often optimally) via integer programming, constraint programming, or other methods. I'm the father of four young children, so I'm looking for flexible/remote part-time work (I'm also open to contract work).

I'm currently working on a column generation-based daily fantasy sports (DFS) solver as a personal project. Taking as input the predictions/requirements of the user, this solver can generate optimal lineups for multi-entry tourneys. It is, as far as I'm aware, the only DFS solver that can generate provably optimal sets of lineups for multi-entry DFS tourneys.

I have been the Head of Data Science at a startup and am currently run data science at a large corporation. My work spans academia and industry. I am experienced as both an IC and a leader in the Data Science/Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence space. I work on big data problems, forecasting and predictive analytics and simulation.

I have a PhD in Computer Science and Civil Engineering. I have a strong interest in simulation (real time and physics simulations) and was for a time a Research Fellow in a top-level mathematics department where I worked on Bayesian probability.

Some of my work is visible on my website, www.dkgrdatasystems.com.

While I am very interested and experienced in R&D I also work on production systems. I have extensive experience in both SaaS and hardware products.
