Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Gil-sanchez is a Data Scientist and Engineer with over a decade of experience building reproducible, metadata-driven data ecosystems for development, public health, housing, and transport policy. At the World Bank he leads engineering for Data360—designing 150+ automated pipelines and a Python framework intended to become an internal package—while championing Scrumban, CI/CD, and rigorous data governance. He has blended academic rigor (publications and tool development at the University of Cambridge) with entrepreneurship as a co-founder of an AI/data consultancy, delivering real-time dashboards and API integrations for global decision-makers. Comfortable across R, Python, SQL and modern tooling like Kedro and Databricks, he focuses on automation and transparency so teams can move faster with cleaner, FAIR-aligned data. Unexpectedly, his background in systems-and-computing from technical high school plus an MSc in Statistics gives him an unusual combination of low-level tooling skill and high-level statistical modeling.
