Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEmre Çelikten is an experienced data scientist with 11 years of applied software and machine learning experience, currently driving data initiatives at STH Consulting from Türkiye. He has a strong track record of end-to-end ownership—building ETL pipelines, improving database performance, and producing high-quality datasets for ML—demonstrated by his sole-data-scientist role at TradeMachines. His hands-on background spans NLP (BiLSTM entity recognition), computer vision improvements for object detection, and industrial-scale batch image classification across hundreds of millions of images. Earlier roles combine research-grade Bayesian modeling at Aalto University with production engineering in Scala, Python, JavaScript and PHP, giving him both academic rigor and pragmatic engineering instincts. He brings a practical emphasis on data quality, reproducible pipelines and stakeholder communication, and often pairs research techniques with software-engineering best practices. A less obvious strength is his history of optimizing long-running build systems and mentoring teammates—skills that help scale models into maintainable production systems.
