Hi, I’m Dawid (pronounced Dah-veed, despite the w). Currently, I’m based in Marseille, France. Welcome to my personal blog about data science :-)
I am a freelance data scientist. I help French companies (mostly e-commerce) make sense out of data. From databases to machine learning, from prototypes to Web Apps/API’s on cloud. I have worked professionally using:
- Databases (SQL)
- Python (Object-Oriented)
- Machine Learning
- Django and Flask
- Cloud (AWS)
Last year I was awarded a PhD in particle physics. For the thesis, I performed a challenging data analysis testing “Lepton Flavour Universality” at the LHCb experiment at CERN. My major responsibilities required the following skills:
- Python and Shell (Bash) programming
- Machine Learning (Boosted Decision Trees, XGBoost)
- Computing on the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG)
- Ensuring reproducibility: pipeline automation (Snakemake), Continuous Integration (CI) with GitLab
- Communication: technical writing (thesis), presenting results on behalf of the LHCb Collaboration counting +1200 people
I also taught Python and Java at university.
After the thesis, I decided to pursue a career in data science in business/industry. I’ll document in this blog my data science projects and practical lessons I’ve learnt in the field.

Feel free to get in touch if you want to discuss your data project, spot a bug/mistake, have suggestions or want to tell me a joke ;-)
