Key Components:
- Kafka: Ingests 10K+ events/sec from web, mobile, server-side
-
- Delta Lake: Versioned feature store with time-travel for reproducibility
-
- Attribution Engine: First-principles causal framework (not weighted correlation)
-
- Bayesian UQ: Quantifies model uncertainty, prevents overconfident predictions
-
- API Layer: Sub-100ms latency for real-time decisioning

Most "attribution" is just weighted correlation with extra steps. I build systems grounded in first-principles causal frameworks:
- Markov chain state modeling for temporal causality (not just last-touch heuristics)
-
- Shapley value decomposition for fair marginal contribution (game-theoretic fairness)
-
- Bayesian uncertainty quantification to bound epistemic vs. aleatoric error
-
- Real-time probabilistic identity resolution for streaming platforms (Kafka + Ray)
- Why this matters: Resolves the fundamental gap between "correlation that shipped" and "causation that scales."
- End-to-end data engineering for AI systems that don't explode in production:
-
- Event streaming pipelines: Apache Kafka, Delta Lake, CDC (change data capture)
-
- Distributed compute: Ray, Dask, orchestration with Airflow/Prefect
-
- Feature stores & versioning: MLflow, DVC for reproducible experiments
-
- Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, custom drift detection (Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests)
- Recent case: Live event attribution engine for WWE Raw on Netflixβsecond-screen correlation with <2s latency during live broadcasts.
- Behavioral profiling, audience segmentation, and revenue optimization:
-
- Psychographic priors for context-aware attribution (not just demographics)
-
- Treatment effect heterogeneity to identify high-value segments (CATE estimation)
- Multi-armed bandit optimization for dynamic creative allocation
- LLM-augmented research: Automated product discovery (2.6 sale-ready products/day, zero manual work)
