I am a Oracle Cloud Solution Engineer-Data Engineering where I help clients address pressing business use cases by providing descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive analytics. In essence, I serve as a data science consultant helping clients find and implement solutions. In one example, I helped a semiconductor manufacturer find patterns in their data to help reduce the number of rejected semiconductors. This required creating a pipeline for the data and combining data from disparate data sources to enable data exploration and building predictive models. I helped establish a big data warehouse through our cloud solution, Autonomous Data Warehouse, and connected the data to a data visualization tool, Oracle Analytics Cloud. The machine learning model results were imported into the visualization tool. The ultimate goal is to both ground and recommend solutions for a particular business use case. With respect to this client, we recommended a specific equipment path to reduce the number of rejected semiconductors. Since I work with clients from different industries and don’t understand their domain, It is crucial to ask the right questions.
