We value collaboration and team ownership -- no one should feel they're solving a hard problem alone.
Together we help each other grow our skills through peer reviews, group studies, and frequent knowledge sharing to deepen our ML and stats understanding. This is done through live demos, write-ups, and special cross-team projects.
