The Data Guys™ is a 12-person data and machine learning (ML) engineering team within Scisney Social Impact, Inc.

We specialize in designing, building, and scaling data infrastructure that transforms how organizations capture insights and measure real-world impact, in real time.

At The Data Guys™, we build data systems that are secure, fast, and scalable, so you can focus on impact, not infrastructure.

From high-throughput ingestion pipelines to real-time processing with Kafka, Spark, and AWS Lambda, our infrastructure is designed to move data efficiently and intelligently. We build modern data lakes and warehouses on AWS and Azure, engineered for performance, cost optimization, and seamless collaboration.

Our AI stack includes scalable deployments with TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Scikit-learn, fully integrated with ML Ops pipelines for continuous training, versioning, and monitoring. Every system we build is governed by privacy-by-design principles, role-based access controls, and audit-ready compliance frameworks.

We don’t just engineer pipelines, we power transformation. Our work enables clients to operationalize data, deploy responsible AI, and drive measurable impact from the ground up.

What We Do?

Data Ingestion & Pipeline Engineering
We turn raw data into real-time insight by architecting high-throughput ingestion pipelines that pull from APIs, CRMs, surveys, IoT devices, and social streams. Built to scale and automate, our systems ensure your data is always ready for action, no matter the format, volume, or source.
Cloud Warehousing & Scalable Data Lakes
From AWS to Azure, we design secure, privacy-first architectures that scale effortlessly and integrate seamlessly. Whether it’s a centralized data lake or federated warehouse, our infrastructure keeps your data accessible, compliant, and collaboration-ready for advanced analytics.
KPI Dashboards & Impact Intelligence
We don’t just visualize data, we shape it into story. Using tools like Power BI, Tableau, and Smartsheet, we create dynamic, real-time dashboards that help you track KPIs, surface trends, and make decisions that move the needle. We translate complexity into clarity.
Predictive Analytics & ML Forecasting
Forecast needs before they happen. Our ML engineers design custom models for resource demand, risk mitigation, and community outcomes. Every model is built with bias auditing and transparency in mind, ensuring your AI is as ethical as it is effective.
AI-Powered Automation & Workflow Tools
From natural language processing to chatbot assistants and no-code automations, we simplify complexity. Whether you're analyzing community sentiment or streamlining repetitive tasks, we create low-code, high-impact AI tools tailored for scale, speed, and accessibility.
Privacy-Centered & Sovereign Infrastructure
We embed data governance into the foundation. From tribal data sovereignty to HIPAA-aligned systems, we engineer infrastructure that respects privacy, protects rights, and reflects community values. Built for BIPOC, nonprofit, and civic partners, by a team that gets it.
