What I'm looking for

I seek roles applying computer vision and ML to real-world systems, valuing collaborative, ethical teams, production-impact work, and opportunities to scale models and deploy real-time solutions.

I am an AI-focused software engineer with practical experience in computer vision, natural language processing, and deploying machine learning models for real-world applications. I excel at connecting research with production systems and prioritise ethical, scalable deep-learning methods.

My recent research delivered a robust multi-camera 6DoF pose-estimation methodology achieving 0.05° rotation and 50 µm positional precision, and included migrating Python implementations to C++ for real-time performance improvements. I have professional experience building web and mobile applications, SQL reporting solutions, and automation software across industry and academia.

I am curious, fast-learning, and thrive in collaborative, Agile environments, continuously expanding expertise in generative AI, LLMs, robotics, and time-series forecasting while focusing on reproducible, high-impact engineering.
