Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarcus Leiwe is a founder and senior data consultant with ~8–10 years of cross-sector experience turning complex life sciences, health, fintech, and crypto data into production analytics and strategic guidance. With a PhD in Developmental Neurobiology, he blends deep scientific rigour with hands-on engineering in Python, SQL and MATLAB, delivering end-to-end pipelines and deployable models on AWS, Railway and Vercel. He has led distributed, cross-functional teams and been the primary client contact for projects ranging from multiomic analysis platforms to CNN extensions that accelerate neuron identification. Notable wins include a bot-detection system that stopped over $10,000 of fraud in 72 hours and a timely, under-budget NIH market-research engagement. Marcus mentors junior engineers, drives data literacy and scalable best practices, and brings an unusual mix of wet-lab experience and production ML—he once replaced legacy lab tooling and created a novel clustering algorithm (dCrawler) that underpinned multiple published studies.
