Jovan Stojanovic is a PhD candidate at Inria’s Soda team with six years of experience at the intersection of econometrics, political economy and machine learning. He maintains the Python open-source library skrub, contributing practical data-preprocessing tools like GapEncoder enhancements and robust tests that help prepare tabular data for ML workflows. Previously a data scientist and software engineer at Inria and a statistical editor at the OECD, he blends rigorous academic training (Université Paris-Saclay, Paris School of Economics, Panthéon-Sorbonne) with hands-on engineering. Based in Paris, he also teaches causal inference and brings a pragmatic attention to reproducibility and documentation often missing in research code.
