Arnold Dijk<\/h2>\n

Diehard code writing? I’m your man! Even though math and data are the things I am hot for, I am also sensitive to the people around me. What gives me real satisfaction in my work is seeing that others are happy with the model I have created. I have a sincere intention to become better than I currently am. This manifests itself in a willingness to learn and to look critically at myself in all areas.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Technical Creativity<\/h3>\n

Copying standard models? I think anyone can do that. Thanks to my technical creativity, I can easily develop (predictive) models and think of the right variables to go with them.<\/p>\n

Mister Analyst<\/h3>\n

Whether during a meeting or in given information; I quickly grasp what is going on. Because I recognize certain connections quickly, I can easily get to the heart of a problem.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

Programming<\/h3>\n

Solely mastering a programming language is not enough. I can make a good estimation and design beforehand, which allows me to write structured code.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n \"\"\n <\/div> \n

Sort-of-Social<\/h3>\n

Where this is not self-evident for most data fanatics, I like to connect with others. For example, I like to collaborate and yes, I also like to attend Friday afternoon drinks!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Besides a Data freak, I am…<\/h2>\n

My big dream is to see a tornado in real-life. Truly! I even dream about tornado season. On the work front, I am interested in having my own business. And well, that brings me back to data. Together with a colleague I recently developed my own product (a trading bot). This tastes like more.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Data Scientist at DSM<\/h3>\n

At DSM I worked\u00a0as a Data Scientist. Many\u00a0valuable\u00a0DSM-employees decide\u00a0to\u00a0quit\u00a0voluntarily. This\u00a0is seen\u00a0as a major problem\u00a0because\u00a0on the\u00a0one\u00a0hand, a lot of knowledge\u00a0is lost, and\u00a0on the\u00a0other\u00a0hand, new (good) employees must be\u00a0found and\u00a0onboarded. To\u00a0prevent\u00a0so\u00a0many\u00a0employees from\u00a0leaving, Vivien\u00a0Pfannstiel\u00a0(former\u00a0Vlammr) and\u00a0I developed\u00a0an\u00a0Extreme Gradiant\u00a0Boosting\u00a0model. This\u00a0model can\u00a0be\u00a0used\u00a0to\u00a0indicate\u00a0the\u00a0risk of employees quitting\u00a0for\u00a0every\u00a0department. These insights\u00a0are, in turn, used\u00a0to\u00a0take targeted\u00a0measures\u00a0to\u00a0prevent\u00a0valuable\u00a0employees from\u00a0quitting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>

Arnold’s tip…<\/h2>\n

When people want to learn programming, they often start with a course on YouTube, for example. Nothing wrong with that, but you only get good by practicing a lot! My tip? Try solving the problems on project Euler; projecteuler.net<\/a>. For me, this has been an amazing exercise!<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>
