<p>SEEKING WORK<p>Location: South America<p>Technologies: PostgreSQL, GCP, BigQuery, Looker Studio, Python, ElasticSearch<p>Email: nothingcomeseasy@protonmail.com<p>I am a versatile Data Analyst and Generalist with a rich background in data analysis and product development. My expertise spans across creating actionable insights through analytics, driving data-oriented cultures, and engaging with customers to meet their needs effectively. With experience in Google BigQuery, Looker Studio (Google Data Studio), PostgreSQL, and Python, I have led projects in data integration, dashboard creation, and machine learning applications (although I'm not fluent/specialist in ML).<p>Most recently I'm working with AI, LLMs (finetuning openai models), OCR, working with different embeddings and dimensions (cohere, mixedbread, openai) etc.</p>
