Oh yeah! I think my book would be great for this! If you find that there's anything missing, or anything that's not clear, I'd really appreciate hearing about it (hopefully there'll be a 2nd edition sometime!)

I’m spending some time doing consultancy work and side projects while I look for a new full-time position. I’m looking for a Python developer role where ML/data science experience is a plus - if you hear of anything interesting, please send it my way!

My latest book, “Software Engineering for Data Scientists”, was published by @oreilly.bsky.social in April this year. It’s a guide for data scientists looking to improve their coding skills, and it’s deliberately friendly. You can buy a copy here: www.amazon.com/Software-Eng...
