Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAlex Harvey is a Senior Managing Consultant at IBM with a 16-year career that bridges geological engineering and applied data science, leveraging a BASc and MASc in Geological/Geophysical Engineering to turn exploration and production data into predictive models for metals discovery. He combines domain expertise in drilling and geophysical datasets with advanced analytics, machine learning, and business decision support to help mining clients prioritize value of information and streamline processes. Early experience in eDiscovery honed his skills in data collection, intake and legal-technical workflows, while hands-on work in low-level wireless security (contributing core functionality to the JackIt exploit) reveals a comfort with RF systems and systems-level coding beyond geoscience. Known for a practical focus on geospatial data processing, visualization and interpretive analytics, he thrives on improving data pipelines so that technical models directly inform commercial decisions. Based in Old Toronto, Alex brings a rare mix of academic research, industry collaboration with major producers, and security engineering curiosity to complex, data-driven problems.
