Find the right data system solutions for your particular research needs.
Whether you are interested in social media or geo-spatial data, machine learning or causal inference, in producing original research or supporting data services for research or library staff, we are happy to offer our consulting services. We can provide our unique perspective in choosing a technical stack, designing data pipeline architecture, providing prototypes and proofs of concept, making performance, security and privacy recommendations, and more.
Build your infrastructure with our professional engineering staff.
In addition to our consulting services we also offer software and data engineering contracting services. We are happy to work within or outside of your technical stack to build out or improve existing data systems. We offer short term project-based contracts as well as monthly maintenance retainer contracts for system support.
