One data science team, the Forecasting, Estimation, and Demand team, was in a bind. Their data generation process was causing them iteration & operational frustrations in delivering time-series forecasts for the business. The solution? Hamilton, a novel Python micro-framework, solved their pain points by changing their working paradigm.Some of the main workers on Hamilton are the dedicated engineering team called the Data Platform. Data Platform builds services, tools, and abstractions to enable DS to operate in a full-stack manner, avoiding hand-off. In the beginning, this meant DS built the web apps to serve model predictions. Now, as the layers of abstractions have been built over time, they still dictate what is deployed, but write much less code.// BioStefan loves the stimulus of working at the intersection of design, engineering, and data. He grew up in New Zealand, speaks Polish, and spent formative years at Stanford, LinkedIn, Nextdoor & Idibon. Outside of work in pre-COVID times, Stefan liked to 🏊, 🌮, 🍺, and ✈.// Other Linkshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5Zp_30Knoohttps://www.slideshare.net/StefanKrawczyk/hamilton-a-micro-framework-for-creating-dataframes https://www.slideshare.net/StefanKrawczyk/deployment-for-free-removing-the-need-to-write-model-deployment-code-at-stitch-fix--------------- ✌️Connect With Us ✌️ -------------Join our Slack community: https://go.mlops.community/slackFollow us on Twitter: @mlopscommunitySign up for the next meetup: https://go.mlops.community/registerConnect with Demetrios on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dpbrinkm/Connect with Vishnu on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vrachakonda/Connect with Stefan on LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/skrawczykTimestamps: [00:00] Introduction to Stefan Krawczyk [00:37] Why Hamilton?
