Name: 2025-09: Python in Production: From Notebooks to ML Systems

Location: Workhaus

Details
Training a model in a notebook is one thing, but running it reliably in production is another!

Note: We are usually at Platform Calgary, but this month we are at Workhaus on the 11th floor of the Canadian Western Bank building
In this talk, we’ll explore how to transform Python code from quick experiments or scripts into real-world applications and ML systems. Drawing on a decade of experience across finance, edtech, and healthcare, Nathan will share the patterns, tools, and lessons that help teams write maintainable, testable, and scalable ML code.
We’ll cover:
Code patterns that fail at scale—and what to do instead
Tooling for production: uv, pydantic, pytest, GitHub actions, structured logging
A live code refactor: from academic-style script to production-grade ML component
What ML projects actually look like inside companies
Perfect for students, career switchers, and working engineers looking to build real systems—not just train models.
