About

Driven by a passion for coding since age 14 and a fascination with AI sparked by AlphaGo’s historic victory, David Ade has built his career around creating impact-driven solutions. This pursuit led him to a BSc in Computer Science & AI from the University of Sussex, where his dissertation on an NLP-driven “Shopping Bot” earned a 1st class mark. His professional work exemplifies this mission, particularly at Sanius Health, where he was instrumental in a £225M strategic partnership, scaled a published machine learning model to 92% sensitivity for a 399-patient cohort , and engineered a pipeline connecting over 500 rare-disease patients with new clinical trials. As an entrepreneur, his award-winning, AI-powered startup managed over £7500 in funding, while his solo SaaS project on AWS saved over 100 users £4,000 and 264 hours of manual work. David’s focus on tangible outcomes is also evident in his personal projects, such as a 96%-accurate pneumonia detection model, and his leadership in organising a charity bike trip that raised £7000. He leverages a deep technical toolkit, including an AWS Machine Learning certification and expertise in Python, TensorFlow, and Langchain, to turn complex AI concepts into real-world benefits
