George Kastrinakis

I completed my first degree in Electrical Engineering in Athens, Greece and after working for almost two years as a software engineer I decided I was ready to get into the world of data-science. That is when I started my masters in Machine Learning at University College London. I then immediately joined the FT through a graduate scheme in order to gain a wider view of the business and then moved to the data-science team. As part of the data-science team I have been involved in building both of our data/model pipelines, developing and maintaining various models around user churn, user engagement and subscription lifetime value. My greatest passion outside technology and data-science is traveling and hiking, having been in Nepal and the Himalayas twice over the past two years.
