Shaun McGirr
About
Shaun McGirr is a data & AI leader with 20 years of varied experience across official statistics, academia, consulting, automotive, and software. He achieved minor stardom in the 2019 documentary Data Science Pioneers, coining the phrase “things that happen 35% of the time, happen ALL the time” to explain why quite likely outcomes are often dismissed out of hand.
Shaun believes the toughest part of generating value from data is finding the right questions and ensuring the answers will actually push a lever to change the world, a theme developed further in his podcast Half Stack Data Science. As DevOn’s Chief AI & Data Officer, he helps customers identify realistic opportunities to apply AI and deliver value with minimal fuss.
