Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Carson is a software engineer and machine learning researcher with eight years of hands-on experience building data-driven tools focused on climate and environmental causes. Based in Los Angeles, he blends practical software engineering—currently at Souza Consulting—with leadership experience as a former Lead Software Engineer at Mindful Metrics and applied data science work from internships like Divergent. A CS graduate of California State University, Long Beach with additional study in Hamburg, he pairs rigorous academic background with self-driven research in deep learning. Mark is skilled at system integration and information systems from campus roles, demonstrating an ability to move projects from prototype to production. He brings strong critical thinking and problem-solving to interdisciplinary teams, aiming to create technology that benefits people, animals, and the planet. Less obvious: he combines startup-style ownership with academic research habits, making him equally comfortable iterating quickly or digging into model-driven experiments.
