[LRUG] [Job] Data geeks sought

[Viktor Tron]

Hi Henry,

I'd be interested hearing more about these opportunities.
In fact I was registered for the milkroundabout but could not go in the  
end.

I have worked mostly on machine learning, language technology and  
currently a
research engineer at Nuance. In the past 4 years I have been using ruby on
rails for various company internal apps as well as commmercial web apps  
and in fact ruby/rails
is my most uptodate expert skill.

All my life I worked with huge datasets mostly of natural language and  
very good with
data mining, statistics, visualisation as well as natural language and  
speech technology.

This is a unique combo that you describe, a promising mix of my current  
passion for RoR and my carreer
expertise spiced with a startup feel.

Please look at my linked in profile: http://uk.linkedin.com/in/viktortron

Just a quick hello to touch base about this.
Let me know if you wish to take this further

Vik
