Available to hire
I am a PhD in Machine Learning from Durham University with hands-on experience in rule generation, reinforcement learning, NLP, LLM applications, and multi-agent systems. I developed the Strategy Evaluation Rule (SER) framework integrating neural rule generation, simulation, and social-metric evaluation, delivering adaptive and scalable AI solutions.
I am proficient in Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, LangChain, AWS/GCP, and deploying ML pipelines in production environments. I am seeking AI/ML Engineer roles to apply research expertise in building intelligent, efficient, and user-centric AI products. I also hold a 3-year UK PSW visa (valid until 2028).
