Data Analytics – David B. Jolley

Project Helios

Here is a project in did for my IBM Data Analytics certificate.

The report was to use SpaceX publicly available data and report the feasibility of creating a stage one rocket which could be redeployed. A startup company wanted to see if they could improve on the work the SpaceX has done to this point. They wanted to review the feasibility and minimize their exposure to some of SpaceX’s lessons.

I created and used machine learning models to optimize all the factors that weigh on a successful rocket launch and landing. I used IBM’s Watson for computations along with their Cognos for reporting.

New Hire Employee Turnover

This project looked into the source of higher turnover of newer employees. Lots of speculations and opinions. What can we see? If you would like to see the full report, go here. New Hire Turnover Findings

Company Metrics

Here is a company system I designed to help steer the ship.

The system is live and interactive.

Select on a date, a part number, or a defect and the dashboard will change to show you just the data you want. The data is self-service to all. With another click any user can export the data for analysis in any ways they want.

Current and Future Trends in Programming

Here is an analytic interactive model I built with Python and IBM’s Watson on IBM’s Cognos system. If you would like to see the report, go here. Current and future trends in programming and datbases

Operator Performance

This is an interactive tool I made to analyze an employee’s performance.

Click on an employee number and you can review the metrics on the employee’s performance.

Can tell you which processes the operator is good at. How many different processes have they ran? Where could they make improvements?

Production Line Analytics

Interactive tool for analyzing production line data. Click on sections to filter and explore metrics for specific lines, time periods, and shifts. Easy for anyone to use and gain insights.
