Aidan Russell
Aidan Russell has been the Head of Data Science at Infogrid for a little over 2 years. During that time the company as a whole has grown from 12 to 310 and the Data Science team from 1 to 15 (and continuing to grow). He holds a PhD in physics and has worked in data science since 2015 across a range of companies from early stage startups to 100 year old corporates (and picked up some strong opinions on the best way to run things along the way).
Sessions
Lightning Talks are short 5-10 minute sessions presented by community members on a variety of interesting topics.
In order to provide a standardised format for linting python projects, we at Infogrid developed a template which we call Bobby (that being a nickname for police officers) which enforces strict standards for type hinting with mypy, documentation with pydocstyle, black and flake8 for code quality, and pytest for running tests which we have now open sourced.
