● About
Andre Zapico is a quantitative consultant working across applied mathematics, computational statistics, and software engineering. His graduate thesis was in radar waveform design, and he took a plurality of graduate level mathematics courses. Much of his career has been spent building production quantitative software in C and C++.
Recent work includes high performance computing for econometrics software at SAS, statistical support for cardiovascular medicine at the University of Michigan, applied modeling for research groups in clinical medicine, and sports analytics.
Likely LLC is currently expanding and bringing on additional expertise in computer vision and artificial intelligence. Ongoing interests include quantitative and computational support for humanitarian and public-health applications. Likely LLC is hiring on a contract, as needed, basis.
