What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable, production-grade AI and machine learning systems that solve complex real-world problems in regulated, public-sector, climate, biodiversity, and sustainability settings.

I've built AI workflows for Deutsche Bank, the Natural History Museum, MHRA, the Office for National Statistics, and DEFRA, turning complex documents and scientific data into usable, validated outputs. My work spans prompt-engineered LLM extraction, RAG, knowledge graphs, document intelligence, and production cloud deployment.

At the Natural History Museum, I designed a Neo4j biodiversity knowledge graph and graph-enhanced RAG workflows to extract and validate handwritten species records against repositories including GBIF. I presented this applied AI work for biodiversity digitisation and validation at the Living Data Conference in Colombia in 2025.

For MHRA and Deutsche Bank, I've developed secure, evaluation-led document AI pipelines using Amazon Bedrock, OpenAI models, Azure Document Intelligence, hybrid retrieval, hallucination detection, and human-in-the-loop validation. I focus on auditability, confidence scoring, semantic retrieval, and reliable extraction from regulatory, legal, and financial documents.

My earlier research and consulting work applies Python, geospatial machine learning, forecasting, computer vision, and cloud platforms to climate risk, energy, sustainability, public health, and humanitarian challenges. I've published 10 lead-author papers on AI, machine learning, and Earth observation for sustainability, and have supervised MSc and PhD students.
