ABOUT JOSHUA CHANG
I am a Data Scientist at Ford Motor Company, leveraging expertise in data engineering and machine learning to drive innovative solutions. Proficient in handling expansive datasets, I utilize GCP, Python, SQL, Qlik Sense, and Alteryx to manage the full data lifecycle—from extraction and transformation to visualization and modeling. My collaborative approach with cross-functional teams ensures the delivery of actionable insights that align with strategic company goals.I hold a Master of Science in Data Science from the University of Michigan. During my studies, I contributed to the MiPACE study in collaboration with Apple, where my passion for data and human performance intersected. I developed a VO2max calculation algorithm that reduced workflow run time by 80% and crafted ML models that outperformed benchmarks by 4% using Apple Watch data.That drive to push boundaries extends beyond the code. A former Division 2 basketball captain, I am now chasing the depths of my athletic potential in endurance sports. As an Ironman 70.3 World Championship qualifier and sub-3-hour marathoner, I bring the same discipline, stamina, and pursuit of continuous improvement to my professional projects as I do to the race course.
