What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation, encourages team growth, and values impactful technology.

I am a seasoned Chief Technology Officer with over 12 years of experience in building and scaling product-centric software and AI platforms. My journey began in academia, where I published 12 research papers as an undergraduate, and has since evolved into a career where I have played pivotal roles in EdTech and HealthTech startups across the Netherlands and the UK. I thrive in dynamic environments, leading teams from inception to success, and have a proven track record of developing technologies that serve millions of users.

At SpatialX, I spearheaded the development of cutting-edge machine learning models aimed at curing cancer, resulting in a patent for an AI-powered Multi-Modal Annotation System. My hands-on approach allowed me to write core Python micro-services and implement infrastructure as code (IaC) solutions that streamlined our AI/ML pathology pipeline. My leadership at Noon improved feature velocity significantly while reducing operational costs, showcasing my ability to drive efficiency and innovation in tech teams.
