About Me
I’m Samuel Lowe (he/him), a mathematician, data scientist, and software engineer specializing in platform work and full-stack web development, based in the greater Boston area. I’m currently consulting as a data analyst at the Center for Strategic Politics and as the lead software engineer for Oasis Management Inc. At CSP I designed the weighted single transferable vote algorithm behind our 2025 New York City mayoral primary poll, which was featured in the New York Times. At Oasis, I lead a team of four engineers building the Django platform and mobile app that run the business, now used by over 50 employees.
I’m looking for full-time or part-time work. You can see more on my work experience page or in my resume, and reach me on LinkedIn or at sam@samlowe.dev.
I graduated from Northeastern University with a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics in 2023 and an M.S. in Applied Math in 2025, mostly focusing on probability and number theory (specifically elliptic curves). Some of my projects, like nprcore.me, have been recognized by National Public Radio and All Things Considered. You can see more in my full portfolio and GitHub.

- Essays, articles, and explainers I’ve written, as well as my undergraduate thesis on elliptic curves and the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture
- Roadmaps for self-studying math and computer programming
- Discussions of my lists of my favorite books, games, movies (on Letterboxd), my media backlog, etc.
- My Magic: the Gathering decks (on Archidekt) and random lists I’ve put together with friends of favorite cards and flavor text
