Experience

Lead AI / ML Researcher – July 2022 – May 2025 

  • Led a team to deliver a comprehensive AI/ML initiative, resulting in operational efficiency and revenue increase.
  • Spearheaded the design and deployment of transformer-based vehicle detection models, improving ANPR accuracy by 32% and reducing false positives by 25%, directly increasing citation revenue by over £500k annually across council partners.
  • Led the integration of vector search (FAISS) and ONNX-optimized LLMs to enable retrieval-augmented generation in regulatory document chatbots, reducing compliance query resolution time by 60%.
  • Architected cloud-agnostic training pipelines (Docker, Airflow, Kubernetes) across AWS; accelerated model retraining cycles by 3x while lowering cloud compute costs by 28%.
  • Implemented MLOps best practices (CI/CD, GitHub Actions, MLflow), increasing model deployment velocity by 40% and improving traceability and rollback safety for critical model releases.
  • Collaborated with cross-functional stakeholders, enabling the launch of real-time predictive pricing tools that led to a 15% increase in parking bay utilisation across trial locations.

Research Assistant – Jan 2022 – July 2022

  • Contributed to cutting-edge AI research, enhancing model accuracy and efficiency.
  • Developed a scientific text classification framework using HuggingFace and GAN-based data augmentation, boosting F1 score by 19% on imbalanced biomedical corpora.
  • Deployed models on GPU-enabled AWS EC2 instances with SageMaker endpoints, enabling sub-500ms inference speeds for live query applications in pharma RD.

ML Engineer – Sept 2019 – Aug 2020

  • Developed predictive models and contributed to data science projects, enhancing business insights. 09/2019 – 08/2020
  • Built scalable OCR + NLP pipelines for 100k+ document processing per month, reducing manual review time by 70% and saving
    £120k/year in labour costs.
  • Created modular Python REST APIs serving model predictions to B2B clients, increasing API adoption by 45% in 3 months post-
    launch.

Consultant – April 2019 – Sept 2019

  • Provided technical support and solutions for CRM’s, achieving high customer satisfaction. 04/2019 – 09/2019
  • Developed document conversion algorithms leveraging NLP, OCR, and SQL, improving legacy data usability by 20%.
  • Supported data visualisation pipelines for strategic reporting and customer acquisition.

ML Intern – April 2019 – Sept 2019

  • Created predictive models, improving decision-making accuracy and client returns by 20% 04/2019 – 09/2019
  • Delivered NLP modules for clause classification and contract segmentation; improved clause tagging accuracy by 22%, leading to faster contract review turnaround times for enterprise clients.
