Summary
Evans Ocansey is a mathematician-turned-data scientist with 11 years of experience building software and analytical products that bridge education and industry. He holds a PhD in Computational Mathematics and has applied his expertise to research-grade software (including a Wolfram Language package) as well as production ML systems that predict customer purchase behavior. As a part-time lecturer he designed and taught an experimental mathematics course that turns mathematical inquiry into practical Python-based solutions, equipping dozens of master’s students each year with research and coding skills. At companies from startups to RISC Software, he has delivered end-to-end data solutions—data integration, model building, deployment and monitoring—while maintaining a strong foundation in symbolic computation and algorithmic combinatorics. Based in Austria, he blends rigorous academic thinking with pragmatic product development to create personalized, impact-driven tools for businesses and educational programs.
