A Few Words From Matthew Wooller, Chief Data Engineer at Combient Mix

“There are two essential elements that I look for in a colleague, an eagerness to learn and a desire to solve problems. If you recognise those qualities in yourself, then I want to work with you, together at Combient Mix.

I have been working with data for over 25 years now, and whilst a lot of the problems haven’t changed, there is always something new to puzzle over, solve and fix. That is what keeps this job fascinating - new challenges and new twists on old solutions. With Combient Mix we also get the opportunity to learn about the business models and ways of working across numerous domains, everything from telecoms to automotive, mining to chocolate.

Come and join us - I look forward to fixing things with you and making the data driven workplace of our clients a more useful, productive and innovative space!”

One of Mix’s clients makes heavy construction machinery. Each machine has software and sensors that collect huge quantities of data that has, up until now, remained unexplored.

Data scientists from Combient Mix were among the first to dig into the data once it had been liberated from the machinery. The data scientists uncovered many interesting facets to the data that they felt could be of significance. Working with the business, Mix sketched a roadmap that incorporated a series of MVPs that would be built from the data. The client responded by making Mix a core component in their data-driven journey.

Mix data engineers built up a data lake from scratch and are now engaged in developing pipelines for automatic retrieval of data from machinery across the world.

With access to the data Mix data scientists have constructed a BI tool and a machine learning model - both aimed at facilitating data-led decision making. Algorithms are made production-ready by our machine learning engineers.

The analytical solutions we are building are expected to be rolled out as products within the next couple of years and we will be supporting our client through the process, from data exploration to machine learning models.
