Background

About Robert Powel

I am a Full-Stack Data Scientist at Acquco, a leading e-commerce acquisition platform. In this role, I leverage my analytical skills and creativity to design and implement data-driven solutions that support the operations, growth, and customer satisfaction of various online brands. Some of the projects I have worked on include creating a central cloud storage system for thousands of digital assets, developing a TensorFlow-based AI system to process product images, building a web crawler to scrape product information from listings, and creating a supply planner to optimize inventory and forecasting. I also mentor interns and new hires to the Data team, teaching them best practices and company workflows. Before joining Acquco, I completed my Master of Science in Nuclear Physics and a Certificate in Computational Modeling from Michigan State University, where I conducted collaborative experiments using laser spectroscopy to study the nuclear structure of radioactive isotopes. I developed a python-based data acquisition system that improved the accuracy of laser frequency measurement by an order of magnitude, and used statistical methods, machine learning tools, and object-oriented programming to determine fundamental properties of the nucleus. I published my findings in several peer-reviewed journals, such as Applied Physics B, Physical Review C, and Physical Review A. I am passionate about learning new technologies and applying them to real-world problems. I enjoy working with diverse and talented teams, and I value collaboration, innovation, and impact. My goal is to continuously develop my skills and contribute to cutting-edge projects that challenge me and make a positive difference.
