Description

An Ex-BCG-GAMMA, blue sky thinker, with deep expertise in building Advanced ML/AI/GenAI systems complete with web app proven in live pilots across Retail, Fintech, Insurance, Logistics and more.

At GAMMA, I was responsible for building over 10 different MVP and Software Products/use cases covering Pricing optimisation, Promo optimisation, Logistics simulation, Fraud detection, Asset portfolio optimisation and more; totalling over £100m+ in incremental revenue delivered across all business; many scaling company-wide. Lastly, I was Lead Developer for the CPG Promo.AI software product awarded five ‘Best in Class’ distinctions within Promotion Optimisation Institute (POI)’s 2022 Enterprise Planning Vendor Panorama Report as well as being selected as a 'top 1%tile performer' to act as a technical coach of excellence to provide advice for our teams globally to ensure they adhere to best practices and Responsible AI.

In the last 2 years, as a freelancer, GenAI & Predictive AI use cases have been my core focus for startups and large blue chips alike:

- Predictive AI Pricing Engine for startup: Critical system to price a new financial derivatives instrument giving investors exposure to BTC mining hashrate; a "hashrate derivative" - the company sold last year to Pow.re.

- GenAI Insurance Broker Automation: Built an AI LLM based workflow to automate the client letter generation process improving productivity by 80%

- GenAI Financial Document Q&A: Built a multi turn Agentic RAG application for a Private Equity fund to aid with due diligence of financial documents of prospective targets

- GenAI Data Analysis Agent (UK Airline): Built a production ready LLM based agent capability of using data analysis tools to answer business questions about company data.

Note: Across my experience I have developed a rounded set of skills as a Full Stack Engineer; building multiple web apps (frontend, backend etc.) for GenAI applications in React, FastAPI.
