Summary
Alex Chen is a data engineer with 11 years of experience building analytics systems for public service and mission-driven organizations across the San Francisco Bay Area. He combines hands-on data pipeline and warehouse engineering with program evaluation and visualization, having helped county libraries, city government, nonprofits, and political research firms turn messy, disparate sources into actionable insights. At San Mateo County Libraries he built a historical data warehouse and integrated pipelines to inform equity initiatives and facility planning, and he’s continued that public-sector focus in his current role at Education Analytics. Alex blends survey research and experimental design experience with practical data engineering, so he not only delivers clean datasets but also helps shape the questions and trade-offs behind the analyses. Trained in computer science at Harvard, he’s comfortable translating between technical teams and stakeholders to produce transparent, operational analytics.
