We know you're excited to meet our next team member, Guy Cutting––an instructor and Data Engineer at DSA and Tura.io!
Guy is an enthusiastic problem solver who has deep experience working with data, both on the front and back end. He began his career as a web application developer, working in ColdFusion, PHP, Java, and MySQL. He learned Python while studying Computational Physics and writing experimental control software for optics and radio telescope projects. Eventually his love of math and statistics led him into data science, where he learned to apply a wide range of models and techniques to gain insight from many different types of data.
Guy holds a master’s degree in Systems Science, an interdisciplinary field which uses diverse tools and methods to solve complex problems. Working as a Data Scientist helped him to realize that his real passion is for designing and deploying data processing systems that support front-end analysis and Data Science, and now his focus is in Cloud Data Engineering. He is an experienced communicator who enjoys translating technical problems for audiences of all backgrounds and skill levels. Guy is a Google-certified Cloud Engineer.

David Nielsen (Data Architect) is a curious and creative data wrangler. He first leveraged these skills designing machine-learning algorithms at NASA Ames, where he published research that was able to detect previously unknown safety risks in the national airspace. From there, David moved to Tura.io, where he expanded his data skills to big data and the cloud. As a consulting data architect and engineer, he has designed and built data pipelines using Apache Spark and built scalable machine learning solutions to critical industry challenges.
David earned his master’s degree in Computational Linguistics from the University of Washington. This field focuses the power of machine learning onto the complexity of natural language. He has used this to integrate natural language models into data pipelines. His current focus is Cloud Data Engineering where he leverages the power of cloud computing to build on-demand data pipelines.

Google BigTable is great tool for bridging the gap between highly transactional, low-latency applications (like mobile apps) and backend big data analytics. Now BigTable offers auto-scaling which drastically reduces the Cloud charges to pay only for what you need. Check out the article below:
Google Cloud Bigtable Introduces Autoscaling Google Cloud is introducing autoscaling for Bigtable, enabling users to automatically add or remove capacity in response to the changing demand of applications. In a blog post, Anton Gething, Bigtable product manager and Ashish Chopra, cloud-native databases product marketing lead, announced that wi...
We will be introducing the DSA team over the next couple days!
First up....
