What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build AI-driven products where I can translate business problems into technical frameworks, mentor others, and deliver practical machine learning/NLP solutions in collaborative, agile environments.

I’m a dedicated Data Science professional with over six years of experience specializing in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing. Currently, I’m a Senior Data Scientist Consultant at Squarcle, contributing to AI-driven solutions and providing expert guidance to address complex client challenges.

I design and implement machine learning models and AI solutions (including deep learning and NLP), and I run workshops that translate business problems into technical requirements, prototypes, and project plans. Previously at the Office for National Statistics, I built stakeholder dashboards with Dash and R Shiny and delivered ETL pipelines using SQL, Hive, and HDFS, while also producing business analytics insights. At the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, I led development of an IA chatbot using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and Large Language Models, improving regulatory quality assessment from 63% “weak” ratings, and I spearheaded a takeover and redesign of a spatial data platform with automated API-driven pipelines and a user-friendly Plotly/Dash interface.
