Hi, I’m Nicolas Cozzi. I’m a statistician with hands-on experience in data engineering for finance, machine learning for financial risk, and business analytics. I’m proficient in building end-to-end data pipelines, applying supervised and unsupervised learning, and communicating insights to stakeholders. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to drive data-driven decisions and scalable analytics solutions.
I recently moved to Zurich on a B permit and am excited to further grow in my analytics career, contribute to ambitious projects, and continue delivering high-quality data products and analyses in a dynamic environment.
