Greetings!
My name is Joe Waugh, and I am a Sr. Machine Learning Engineer at ThredUp.
My expertise lies in data science, data engineering, customer analytics, and the realms of machine learning and deep learning. Leading the technical development of initiatives like fraud detection platforms and computer vision applications at FedEx has been a rewarding part of my journey. I've had the privilege of mentoring individuals across analytics, data engineering, and machine learning domains, guiding them toward landing roles in data science.
As a mentor, I prioritize building a solid relationship with my mentees and offering unwavering support tailored to their career goals. I believe in a structured approach, working backward from your aspirations to craft a mentoring plan.
Here's what I can assist you with:
- Transitioning to big tech firms
- Roles in analytics, data science, or ML
- Polishing your resume, LinkedIn, or online portfolio
- Interview preparation
- Advancing in your current role
Let's have an introductory call to see if we're a good fit for a mentorship. I'm eager to help you grow in your journey!
5 out of 5 stars
Joe was instrumental in helping me identify what was holding me back during previous attempts to break into a career in data. Thanks to his guidance, I have created a resume and LinkedIn profile that showcase my value to employers, built a professional GitHub page, felt prepared for technical interviews at top companies, and secured multiple interviews for DS and DE roles in my target industry. As a mentor, Joe was always goal-driven, honest, responsive, and helpful, and I would recommend him to anyone seeking one-on-one guidance to land a career in data.

5 out of 5 stars
I had a brief yet substantial experience with Joe, a data scientist who obtained his MS at Georgia Tech, one of the schools I'm considering. We focused on my goals, training needs, and career possibilities, and Joe's recommendations were spot on. He had done thorough research beforehand, making the meeting efficient and time well-spent. Joe's expertise in both academia and industry was impressive, which proved valuable as I navigate the challenges of balancing academic and professional experience while upskilling.

5 out of 5 stars
I had a session with Joe, and he helped me with a problem I was having related to fine-tuning a generative model. He took the time to delve into the problem and gave me another way to pursue my goal (and his idea successfully worked on my project). I would definitely consider mentorship with Joe in the future, whether I intend to make a job change or need his support and ideas for future works.
