Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSzymon Molinski is a co-founder and senior data scientist based in Helsinki who combines over 15 years of software development and public-facing teaching with eight years of hands-on machine learning, spatial analytics, and time-series modelling. He builds production ML systems and ETL pipelines across cloud platforms (GCP BigQuery, AWS SageMaker/Lambda) and has led projects from session-based recommenders to traffic-attribution and hotel price-optimization. An active open-source maintainer, he created pyinterpolate (geostatistics) and WSKNN (e-commerce ML), reflecting a rare blend of geostatistics and commercial recommender expertise. His background spans space-industry R&D, epidemiology-linked remote sensing, and practical productization—often translating research prototypes into robust services. Frequent trainer and speaker, he distills complex spatial-temporal topics for practitioners and business stakeholders. Notably, he pairs electrical engineering roots with production Python engineering, making him equally comfortable in signal-processing research and cloud-native ML deployment.
