Senior🎓
Top SchoolKyle Dawson is a Lead Data Scientist with nine years of experience building end-to-end machine learning products and decision-grade analytics at the intersection of climate tech, geospatial intelligence, and digital agriculture. He combines a PhD in Atmospheric Science and a NASA postdoc background in LiDAR and aerosol remote sensing with hands-on engineering—deploying models and dashboards on Azure/AWS and productionizing UAV and satellite-derived pipelines. Kyle has led QA/QC forecasting models and interactive wind-processing apps that directly reduced uncertainty in methane surveys, demonstrating a rare ability to translate research-grade sensing into operational tools. His technical fluency spans Python, scikit-learn, GDAL, Plotly, and cloud data platforms, paired with Bayesian uncertainty quantification for robust predictive modeling. Colleagues rely on him to bridge stakeholders and complex science through clear documentation and customer-facing analytics. Based in Houston, he’s actively seeking opportunities to apply geospatial ML and emissions analytics to climate-focused product challenges.
