About
Jean Joseph
I’m a PhD mathematician, and I assist founders, CTOs, and technical leaders in solving hard problems.
My clients come to me when they need to turn their ideas into mathematics or algorithms. Sometimes their model is not functioning, or their data does not make sense. Most times, they have already attempted everything.
I take the time to understand their ideas, develop the right mathematical tools or algorithms, fix any problems, and turn them into working code. Then I explain everything clearly enough that everyone on the team understands my solutions.
Some of my hobbies are mathematics, programming, running, and reading.
The Problem I Solve
I started my practice because companies and individuals needed someone who could think deeply about the mathematics AND then sit down and write the code.
Someone who could read research papers AND turn them into tools that actually work.
Someone who could use data and develop the right mathematical and statistical methods to provide actional insights.
Someone who could craft the perfect technical papers for real impact.
That’s what I do.
Background
- PhD in Mathematics, Florida Atlantic University
- Bachelor of Science (with honors) in Mathematics with physics coursework (including Einstein’s relativity and quantum physics)
- Member of the American Mathematical Society (AMS) & Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)
- 6+ years working with companies in fintech, gaming, education, healthcare, real estate, and analytics
- Based in the United States
I have experience in several areas of mathematics at the research and graduate levels, some of which are:
Type theory
Real analysis
Complex analysis
Category theory
Graph theory
Hypergraph theory
Combinatorics
Elliptic curves
Probability theory
Mathematical logic
Set theory
Abstract algebra
Topology
Algebraic topology
Linear algebra
Differential equations
I have programmed in Python, C++, C#, Q#, JavaScript, EasyLanguage, Lean (theorem prover), and Coq (theorem prover).
What Makes My Approach Different
Mathematical Rigor
I do not provide surface-level fixes. I delve into the actual mathematics required to solve your problem. When something breaks, I identify the underlying issue and implement a solution.
Practical Implementation
You will not receive a PDF full of equations (unless you need them). Instead, you will get working code, functional prototypes, and tools that you can actually use.
Clear Communication
I am able to explain complex mathematics to non-technical people without oversimplifying the information.
Research Synthesis
Sometimes the solution exists in academic papers, but the connections between them have not been made. I can read research literature, extract the useful information, and turn it into something that I or your team can implement.
How I Work
I’m straightforward: I’ll tell you whether I can solve your problem or not. I’ll inform you how long it will take and what it will cost. And I’ll stay in touch throughout the entire project.
My approach is based on rigor, reliability, honesty, and clear communication. I take the time to understand what you are actually trying to accomplish, and I’m always available when you have questions.
I believe that every difficult problem can be solved with the right mathematical techniques and the right technology.
Problems I've Solved
Some examples of what I've worked on:
- A client had a manual spreadsheet system for predictions. I turned it into an algorithm and desktop app. What took hours now takes minutes.
- A medical imaging algorithm had a mathematical error nobody could find for months. I found it, fixed it, and reimplemented it. It works now.
- A client needed a specific financial analysis technique but didn’t know if it existed. I read over 30 research papers, synthesized the methods, and created a working technique they could use.
- A retail startup needed a machine learning system to identify products from videos and rank purchasing sites. I designed the architecture. Their engineers built it. They launched.
- NFT game developers needed their economies balanced before launch. I created the mathematical models and ran simulations. No chaos, no disaster.
Let's Talk About Your Project
If your problem is genuinely difficult, standard solutions haven’t worked, and you need someone who can handle both the mathematics AND the implementation – let’s talk.
