EMMA ORGU
@emmaorgu
AI and cybersecurity engineer building production-grade, agentic AI systems for threat detection.
What I'm looking for
I am an AI and cybersecurity engineer with an MSc in Cybersecurity (Chevening Scholar) focused on building production-grade AI systems that deliver measurable security outcomes.
I have founded multiple AI platforms — CheckThatURL (real-time phishing detection), HiredQuickly (AI job-matching assistant), and AiSureOdds (sports prediction) — and engineered end-to-end ML/LLM pipelines, agentic orchestration layers, and autonomous decision systems.
My hands-on technical toolkit includes PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, LangChain, Flask/FastAPI, Docker, CI/CD, and cloud security practices; I’ve deployed APIs, browser extensions, and automated retraining pipelines to maintain high accuracy in production.
I combine research-driven methods (CNNs, RNNs, Transformers, RL, NLP) with practical security operations experience — improving cloud secure scores, performing enterprise vulnerability assessments, and integrating security into DevSecOps — to bridge innovation and real-world impact.
