Details
Squarespace (https://www.squarespace.com/) offers a website and ecommerce platform that powers a growing slice of the internet. The company has over 500 employees across three cities and internal data that gives a window into the complexity of the web at large.
The Speakers:
Join Andrew Bartholomew and Brad Willard to hear how Squarespace aligns strategy, infrastructure and tools to serve insights across a quickly growing company. You'll get a view into the stack that the analytics, data science, and data engineering teams rely on, and Brad will walk through ways machine learning has helped shape how Squarespace views its customers.
Brad works on the Data Science team, applying customer data to create processes/algorithms to make Squarespace better for its users. Previously he worked on social TV recommendation and algorithm scaling for the thundering herd in the cloud. He has also designed and implemented one of the largest multimodal biometric search engines used in commercial and defense applications around the world.
