About Me
Hi, I’m Jinseok Kim (Joshua) — an Analytics Engineer with 7+ years of hands-on experience across the full data spectrum: from analysis to engineering to AI development.
I design scalable, usable, and cost-efficient data pipelines grounded in a strong understanding of data’s business value. My career has taken me through South Korea’s leading tech companies and a U.S. fintech startup, giving me a unique cross-cultural perspective on solving data problems at scale.
I’m deeply interested in the “Data as a Product” philosophy — treating data assets with the same rigor, usability, and user-centricity as any customer-facing product. My aspiration is to become an AI-native full-stack data builder — someone who not only builds robust data infrastructure but also leverages AI to unlock new possibilities across the entire data lifecycle.
