- PalantirData ScientistDIGITALAGENTUREN & IT-CONSULTINGDezember 2016 - März 2017 (3 Monate)London City, Vereinigtes Königreich(This was a job, not a freelance project)Palantir is one of the world's best data analytics companies. Although less well-known, Palantir's hiring standards are comparable to Google and Facebook.Due to the very high security requirements of some of its customers, I can not say much about what I did there, but it was very similar to my previous job.I left because I saw a business opportunity to found a startup.
- Volkswagen Data LabData ScientistSOFTWARE-HERSTELLERMai 2015 - November 2016 (1 Jahr und 6 Monate)München, Deutschland(This was a job, not a freelance project)I worked on Big Data and Machine Learning problems for the Volkswagen Data Lab, where my contributions earned Volkswagen multiple million Euros.The broad variety of tasks encountered there, combined with the dual-nature of the company as both a start-up and a daughter of a large and well-established company, allowed me to gain experience in a large variety of areas very quickly.My achievements include:I invented, proposed and implemented a new predictive logic based on a Machine Learning algorithm I designed myself that boosted an entire department's productivity by an estimated 30%.I solved problems in a diverse set of areas: customer retention, evasion prediction, sales funnel analytics, predictive maintenance, parts quality analytics, dealer network planning, service planning, and a large scale mobility project using connected vehicle data. For each of these I have been involved in all aspects of research, planning, and implementation.I was trusted to lead both planning and implementation in projects that are critical to Volkswagen's digitalization strategy, and that required especially innovative and creative solutions.In addition to regular work, I also created a tool on my own initiative to save me and all of my colleagues who use it hours of our time every time we start a new project.
