Curriculum Vitae

Sunchuangyu (Rin) Huang

Senior Data Analyst · Strategic Intelligence · Research Software Engineer

Profile

Senior Data Analyst working where data, strategy, and engineering meet. I translate complex data into decision-ready intelligence across government, research, and engineering, from climate-risk modelling at CSIRO and genomics pipelines at WEHI to ministerial reporting in the South Australian government. Problem-first, not model-first: I start from the decision that needs making and the minimum data to make it well. Generalist by nature, specialist by discipline.

Experience

ASO7 Senior Data Analyst

23 Mar 2026 – Present

South Australia Police · Adelaide, SA

Anchored in first-principles thinking and strategic planning, I develop analytical models and statistical frameworks that translate SAPOL's complex policing data into authoritative, decision-ready intelligence for the Ethical and Professional Standards Branch.

  • Applying first-principles thinking to break complex data challenges to their core, then rebuilding structured analytical roadmaps from the ground up.
  • Providing expert strategic advisory to senior leadership on data and reporting proposals, driving evidence-based recommendations.

ASO4 Intelligence & Coordination Officer

Jan 2025 – 20 Mar 2026

Consumer and Business Services (CBS), Attorney-General's Department SA · Adelaide, SA

Using strategic thinking to design risk-based intelligence frameworks and compliance schedules — then applying statistical analysis to make those frameworks data-driven. Built Consumer and Business Services' analytics capability from scratch, turning fragmented multi-source data into dashboards and GIS maps used by Senior Management and the Minister's Office.

  • Designed risk-based intelligence frameworks and operational schedules for tobacco, building work, and product safety compliance — guided by strategic thinking rather than routine cycles.
  • Developed repeatable SOPs and data validation frameworks so institutional intelligence is no longer trapped in spreadsheets or any individual's memory.
  • Established data-sharing MOUs with SAPOL, ITEC, and federal agencies — the first of their kind within the team.

RA.1 Research Assistant — MoodQ

Aug 2024 – Feb 2026

University of Melbourne — Psychiatry · Parkville, VIC

Led full-stack development of MoodQ, a mental health mobile app — migrating from Uniapp to Expo React Native, building the clinician dashboard, and managing the AWS infrastructure across 18 months before a successful handover to a professional team.

  • Migrated application from Uniapp to Expo React Native, improving performance across iOS and Android.
  • Built clinician frontend dashboard for structured patient data management.
  • Reduced hosting costs by ~$500/month through deliberate AWS RDS + LightSail choices.

Software Engineer Intern (Data Science)

WEHI · Parkville, VIC

Automated flow cytometry analysis pipelines using cloud and HPC, developed test infrastructure to improve research reproducibility, and contributed to the open-source celseq2 workflow toolkit.

  • Automated flow cytometry data analysis using cloud and HPC, reducing manual processing overhead.
  • Developed test infrastructure that improved reproducibility of genomics research outcomes.
  • Contributed to the open-source celseq2 toolkit, extending benefit to the broader scRNA-seq community.

Data Science Industrial Consultant

Feb 2023 – Nov 2023

CSIRO · Melbourne, VIC

Collaborated with Dr. Vassili Kitsios on climate-economic research, developing AR time series models to quantify how ENSO patterns could amplify commodity price volatility and food security-induced conflict risk.

  • Developed AutoRegressive time series models with rolling window forecasting for ENSO-commodity analysis.
  • Delivered insights connecting climate change patterns to global food security risk.
  • Bridged communication between University of Melbourne faculty and CSIRO research leadership.

Data Analyst · Agile Leader

Feb 2022 – Jun 2022

CSL (CSL Behring) · Melbourne, VIC

Applied Python automation and unsupervised clustering (T-SNE, DBSCAN, UMAP) to HPLC laboratory data, reducing processing time and improving confidence in medical research data quality.

  • Reduced HPLC result processing time through a purpose-built Python automation script.
  • Applied T-SNE, DBSCAN, and UMAP to identify hidden patterns in complex medical datasets.
