Summary
Sean Stevenson is a Senior Data Engineer with a decade of experience translating complex scientific and business problems into scalable data systems, currently leading delivery of a multi-geography AML transaction monitoring solution at ThetaRay. A former lab and computational geneticist with a PhD in Plant Sciences, he brings rigorous experimental thinking and advanced R/Python skills to production data engineering. He has moved fluidly between research, analytics, and consulting roles—building logistics and bioeconomic models, automating operational analyses, and collaborating closely with data scientists and clients. Sean is comfortable operating at the intersection of big data engineering and domain expertise, turning nuanced requirements into robust, auditable pipelines. Based in Spain, he combines academic depth with practical bootcamp-trained product focus, a mix that helps him bridge algorithmic models and enterprise-grade deployment. An uncommonly scientific perspective on data problems means he often spots subtle failure modes early and designs resilient solutions accordingly.
