I am a data scientist working at the intersection of machine learning, software engineering, and economics. I enjoy building ML-driven products that focus on delivering business impact at international scale.
I am a data scientist by training, and a problem solver at heart. I specialize in recommendation and contextual bandit systems, and an ardent supporter of full-stack data science. I regularly:
I've worked with the largest datasets in Southeast Asia at Gojek and Lazada. I'm proficient in Python, Go, TensorFlow, and tooling within the GCP ecosystem; but am overall pretty tool agnostic.
I solve problems with tech, sometimes within unreasonable deadlines. My teams have been awarded >$33,000 through various hackathons, data science competitions, and startup grants.
I work well with others, and get a rush through team sports. I served as soccer captain at my university college, and won 5 medals (2 gold) at the World Dragon Boat Racing Championships in Florida.
Andre is not only well-versed technically, he also possesses a highly desirable set of traits - he’s self-reliant, intelligent, and goes the extra mile. His friendly and approachable personality clearly served him well in communicating across teams, and his initiative saved many man-hours for the company.
Grace Tang (Data Scientist, Netflix) - on an initiative I led at 99.co that saved >60 man-hours a week.
Andre has demonstrated his deep knowledge in machine learning, using advanced data analytics models and methods to generate insights from a range of diverse data sources.
Benedict The (Business Analytics Lecturer, NUS) - on my project for the 2016 TUN Analytics Challenge.
Andre is a natural at assessing and handling large amounts of data. He grasps business context and technical requirements very quickly and is just as agile at building and implementing working solutions. Definitely a pleasure to work with!
