I'm interested in how we can use data in intelligent ways - to solve problems, make businesses more efficient, and open up new opportunities. These days that means machine learning over Big Data - scalable parallel storage and automated analysis of huge volumes of data, and where it really gets interesting is when the data needs to be accessed in or close to real-time. Specialties: Large-scale Big Data architecture Behavioral targeting (or indeed behavioural targeting if you speak the Queen's English) Data mining and machine learning Design and architecture of highly scalable, low-latency real-time systems Building and managing high-calibre development teams
