Top SchoolJames Chapman is a Data Science & AI Curriculum Manager with 12 years of experience designing practical learning pathways that span AI literacy to advanced LLM engineering. At DataCamp he has built end-to-end curricula—courses on ChatGPT, OpenAI APIs, embeddings and LangChain—while collaborating with industry experts to translate cutting-edge research into hands-on developer content. He combines a strong technical background (MPhys in Physics & Astronomy) with product-minded execution, automating JIRA analysis with the OpenAI API to prioritize course maintenance and drive content monetization. Equally comfortable with pedagogy and code, his earlier work refreshed platform-wide Python, R and SQL materials and anticipated the industry shift from TensorFlow to PyTorch.
