Life has a funny way of bringing you back to familiar places in new roles. I’m now I&F Decision Science Associate Manager at Accenture, and guess where I’m assigned – back working with CODELCO through the MinCo-Hidro project. Same company, completely different perspective. Last time I was inside the operation, now I’m on the consulting side helping shape strategy. It feels like full circle. The faces are familiar but the conversations are different this time around. Being inside the operation versus consulting from the outside are two completely different experiences – when you’re inside, you live the problems daily; from consulting, you see the patterns across multiple operations. As Associate Manager now, I’m less in the code and more in the strategy, which is a shift I’m still adjusting to. The responsibility is bigger – it’s not just about building a good model anymore, it’s about making sure the whole engagement delivers value. I miss the hands-on data science sometimes, but I think this is where I’m supposed to be growing.

The SAG mill optimization model delivered scenarios exceeding +120 TPH. One hundred and twenty tons per hour of additional throughput. That number kept bouncing around in my head all day. Months of work – data pipelines, model iterations, validation with the operations team – and now it’s showing up in production numbers. There’s a particular satisfaction in seeing real tonnage move because of something you built. Today was a good day.
