Kobby Sintim-Arthur.

Software developer and data scientist working at the intersection of energy and tech.

United KingdomOpen to relocationkobbyarthur95@gmail.com

I started my career at Schlumberger (SLB), where I saw firsthand how much the energy industry relies on clean, accurate data. The analytical work was rewarding, but I kept gravitating toward how the systems processing that data were actually built, which pushed me to teach myself software development and spend the last few years building data-driven web applications from the ground up. I recently completed an MSc in Petroleum Engineering, where I brought those skills into my thesis: a deep learning model that automates complex image segmentation for geological data. My strongest fit combines an engineering background with data science and software skills, building systems that turn raw data into decisions.

Professional Experience

Software Developer (Contract)

Jan 2025 – Present

Edgebrcks · United Kingdom

  • Co-developed a custom CRM platform and backend database, improving secure client data storage and daily workflows for the brokerage.
  • Built RESTful APIs and relational databases for the custom CRM, allowing business users to easily query and extract clean data.
  • Maintained the codebase through regular debugging, performance monitoring, and writing efficient Python scripts to ensure continuous data integrity for client operations.

Independent Software Developer

2023 – Present

Self-Employed · United Kingdom

  • Partnered with commercial clients to deliver custom web applications and internal software refinements, independently managing the backend database architecture and logic.
  • Designed, built and launched Invoica (invoica.io), a full-stack client management and invoicing SaaS application using Python and PostgreSQL.
  • Applied object-oriented programming principles to write clean, maintainable code for both client interfaces and data routing.

Data Analyst

2021 – 2024

Schlumberger [SLB] · Ghana, West Africa

  • Managed and processed live streams of offshore drilling data, ensuring data integrity and quality assurance for onshore engineering teams.
  • Maintained 100% data completeness across projects by running strict quality control (QC) and quickly resolving sensor anomalies.
  • Translated high-volume technical drilling data into streamlined operational logs, facilitating data-driven decision-making for non-technical leadership and cross-functional teams.
