Ask HN: I'm 38 and I have just left my last startup. What should I do next?
My experience is as follows:
- 3 years in my startup as founder/CTO. We were a team of 4 developers + sales. We delivered enterprise-grade SaaS for a few listed companies.
- 3 years as Staff+ Data Scientist in a large, very well funded proptech startup. I was the first data scientist, I built the team from scratch, and wrote the initial versions of real state valuation models, price indices, time-in-market models and also a natural language search engine for real state listings and broker visit routing.
- 3 years as data scientist and software developer at a software consultancy. I worked on a variety of projects, from C/Lua projects to introducing Elixir and SPA frameworks to clients. I also analyzed tons of cryptocurrency ICOs for an investor.
Prior to that, I was at the business side, and I worked for 2 years in management consultancy, 1 year in equity research and 3 years in venture capital.
I have a strong network and it’s easy to get interviews.
I can code in Python, Haskell, Elixir, Lua, Javascript, etc, I hold a MSc in Computer Science (formal methods) and a BSc in Economics (econometrics).
