David da Silva

At Emitwise, the end-goal is to reduce global carbon emissions as much as possible. • Increased efficiency of a key flow in our internal tool by 78%. (and more to come) • Came up with and designed a breakthrough change in the Information Architecture, our internal tool's user flow, and our data pipeline with the potential of increasing spend data classification efficiency by a worst case of 140% and an optimistic case of 860%. This was possible due my deep understanding of the user's behavior and my knowledge of computer science and machine learning. • Designed a scalable solution to the problem of finding the most relevant Emission Factor for non-spend data points which works around edge cases by embedding expert knowledge into data structures. • Designed an easy-to-use Figma template for our Carbon Insights & Recommendations report, used by Customer Success on 13 customer deliveries so far. • Helped our sales team understand our competitors and how we differ from them by producing competitive analysis reports. • Multiple other product improvements.

Working on projects from idea to market, including areas such as User Research, Experience Design, Interaction Design, UI Design, Prototyping, and User Validation.

Performed research, including user research, prototyped solutions in Unity, and wrote design guides about the challenges that distributed systems bring to player movement, AI state machines, artificial ecosystems, and organically stable ecosystems.
