Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJames Fiedler is a Staff Machine Learning Engineer with 12 years of applied experience building statistical and ML solutions across finance, research, and consumer platforms. He holds a Ph.D. in Mathematics and has progressed from biostatistics and research roles to senior data science leadership at Capital One and hands-on ML engineering at Indeed, combining rigorous statistical thinking with production-grade Python engineering. James blends Bayesian and frequentist approaches with practical machine learning techniques—boosting, stacking, and deep learning—and builds reusable data-science tooling and visual metaphors to make complex results actionable. An active contributor to causal inference tooling (notably adding notebooks to an implementation of Hernán & Robins’ Causal Inference: What If), he brings both theoretical depth and reproducible code practices to teams. Based in Austin, he is comfortable learning new languages and tools to solve problems and favors clear, visual communication of analytic insights.
