Applied AI/ML — Machine Learning Engineering

Data Scientist

• Built and deployed end-to-end ML systems for risk selection and pricing under uncertainty in Lloyd's of London insurance markets.
• Developed statistical and geospatial modelling approaches to capture spatial dependencies and improve risk estimation.
• Owned ML pipelines from data ingestion and feature generation through training, evaluation, and production deployment.
• Implemented LLM-based document understanding systems for large-scale processing of complex insurance contracts.

Data Science Fellow

Highly competitive, intensive postdoctoral fellowship in data science, AI, and ML.

Postdoctoral Researcher

College Affiliated Postdoc, Trinity College · Affiliated Member, Kavli Institute for Cosmology (KICC)

• Developed simulation-based Bayesian inference pipelines for latent state estimation from noisy, high-dimensional data.
• Implemented robust MCMC-based parameter inference under realistic noise and model mismatch.
• Generated high-fidelity synthetic data using generative models (StyleGAN) for validation and stress-testing of ML systems.

Research Associate — Pre-doctoral Fellow

• Analyzed dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFG) and radio AGN using large millimeter survey datasets.
• Wrote software to cross-match detected galaxies across observations and generated multi-frequency simulations.

Research Assistant (PhD)

• Analyzed the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) using gravitational weak lensing.
• Performed large-scale parallel computing on NERSC clusters.
• Generated simulations of CMB and extragalactic foregrounds using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs).
• Member of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) and Simons Observatory (SO) collaborations.

Teaching Assistant, Aug 2015 – May 2016 — scientific computing instruction and mentoring.

Software Engineer

• Full-stack Java developer; designed and implemented core application algorithms.
• Implemented a secure e-commerce solution and improved the web application's SEO ranking.
