Professional Experience
Applications Consultant (HPC & Data Science)
Provided scientific and technical consultancy on High-Performance Computing architectures, accelerator technologies, and data engineering for academic and industrial clients across multiple high-impact projects:
UK Met Office: Weather Prediction AI Pipeline
Designed and implemented automated software modules for data search, download, and customisation using EUMETSAT satellite data streams. Integrated pipeline into the Cylc workflow engine to streamline data ingestion for a novel AI-based weather prediction model.
UK Space Agency: DataSlipstream
Developed modular scripts for automated satellite data sourcing from the ESA Copernicus Sentinel constellation. Embedded workflows into Apache Airflow DAGs to enable scalable and reproducible Earth Observation data processing.
Cerebras CS-2: Wafer-Scale AI Accelerator
Explored capabilities of the Cerebras CS-2 wafer-scale AI accelerator by training a 111M parameter GPT-3 model for potential healthcare AI applications. Configured and programmed the system, navigating an evolving proprietary software stack.
KenyaMET: High-Resolution Weather Modelling
Deployed GFS/WRF-ARW numerical weather prediction models achieving 1km resolution atmospheric modelling around Kenya's major mountain peaks. Built, configured, and executed models on virtual machines and the ARCHER2 supercomputer.
DDI DataLoch: Health Data Platform
Contributed to building Scotland's collaborative health data platform aggregating routine healthcare and social care data for research. Provided tailored health data assets to researchers and enhanced the R/RStudio and SQL codebase.
Doctoral Researcher (Clinical Data Science)
Addressed the need for rigorous, real-world data-driven Budget Impact Analysis (BIA) in NHS advanced breast cancer care, where traditional assessments often rely on assumptions risking inaccurate forecasts.
Patient-Level Simulation Model for Budget Impact Analysis
Developed a probabilistic, patient-level simulation model (R/Shiny) for BIA targeting post-menopausal women with ER+/Her2- metastatic breast cancer. Linked regional and national datasets to reconstruct clinical pathways, estimating incidence, prevalence, costs, and QALYs over a five-year horizon. Revealed significant discrepancies with existing SMC budget impact tools.

Post-Adoption Auditing Framework
Pioneered a framework for healthcare service evaluation, optimising resource allocation based on data intelligence. Managed complex stakeholder relationships across clinical and academic domains.
Research Data Analyst
Worked on multiple projects using Type 2 Diabetes patient records, developing ML/AI solutions for clinical decision support and predictive modelling.
Innovate UK: MyDiabetesIQ Platform
Led data engineering for prediction of critical hypo/hyperglycaemia events within 24–48 hrs post-hospital-admission using high-frequency time-series patient data from Abbott and Roche devices. Generated synthetic micro- and larger datasets (tabular, time-series) using GAN-based methods. Applied AI/ML including random forests, GANs, and transformers.
CAUSALFound: Foundation Model for Treatment Effect Prediction
Contributing to development of a causal foundation model enabling real-time, personalised treatment effect predictions. Evaluating and implementing diffusion model-based synthetic patient data generation methods to support robust trial emulation and deep learning for individualised clinical decision support using Scotland's comprehensive health data infrastructure.
PhD Summer Internship: Clinical Decision Aid
Inspected, cleaned, and transformed high-frequency clinical and patient-recorded vitality data to feed clinical decision-aid machine learning algorithms providing insights for both clinicians and patients.
Departmental Engineer & Researcher
Biophysics Research: AFM & Optical Tweezers
Designed and conducted experiments using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and optical tweezers to analyse biological responses at the nanoscale. Mentored medical students in research methodologies and experimental design.
