Bengt Söderlund

I'm an Assistant Professor of Economics transitioning into a data science career. My background is in international trade and applied econometrics, with extensive experience in empirical modeling, causal inference, and working with large-scale structured datasets.

I’ve recently built several Python, SQL, and R projects that apply machine learning, causal inference, and financial data analysis to real-world problems. You’ll find a selection of these projects below:

  • Financial data pipeline and KPI analysis using API and SQL
  • Predictive modeling of late shipments using Python and machine learning
  • Causal impact evaluation of the EU–Ukraine FTA using a dynamic gravity model in R

Technical Skills

Languages & Tools: Python, SQL, R, Git, Jupyter, Stata
Libraries: pandas, scikit-learn, NumPy, matplotlib, Seaborn, requests, sqlite3
Core Areas: Machine Learning, Causal Inference, Data Wrangling, Big Data Analysis, Econometric Modeling

More About Me

I'm currently based in Sweden and will be relocating to the U.S. in 2026. I will have full work authorization through a spousal green card and won’t require employer sponsorship.

For academic publications and teaching, visit my current research website. I plan to add data science content there in the future.
