New chapter, bigger models. Stories loading…
- Just joined. The interesting war stories are still somewhere between onboarding and NDA. Check back soon.
Sep 2024 - Jun 2026
Associate Data Scientist
FinTru · London
Built AI agents that read compliance documents so humans don’t have to.
- Devised a KYC profiling AI agent with a human-in-the-loop workflow that generates 300+ risk profiles a month and cuts analyst effort by 75%.
- Fine-tuned LLMs (Falcon, Llama 2, Qwen) with LoRA/QLoRA for retriever-reader QA systems, benchmarked against in-house models.
- Architected memory-efficient RLHF/DPO training pipelines with 4-bit quantization on single-node A100s.
- Authored a white paper on synthetic data generation for a proposed FCA partnership.
Sep 2022 - Sep 2024
Data Scientist
FinTru · Belfast / London
Made retrieval fast and deployment decisions obvious.
- A/B tested BM25, DPR and ColBERT retrievers, cutting inference latency by 50%+ and saving ~2000 analyst hours a year.
- Built the model performance dashboard (Power BI) used across 8 production models, saving 100+ hours a month.
- Integrated PyTorch dataloaders + MLflow experiment tracking; hyperparameter search lifted F1 by 15%.
- Ran the data science internship programme and mentored a master’s thesis.
Jun 2022 - Aug 2022
NLP Data Science Intern
FinTru · Belfast
The summer that started the whole NLP thing.
- Built 4 text-categorization models (Naive Bayes → SVM), with a rule-based pre-processing framework for imbalanced data.
- Reached 97%+ categorical accuracy with BERT; validated with 5x2 cross-validation statistical tests.
Jan 2020 - Mar 2020
Data Science Intern
Ernst & Young India · New Delhi
First taste of enterprise data: SAP, SQL and a lot of dashboards.
- Extracted data from SAP/SQL databases with Denodo for the Risk Advisory team.
- Cut query run-time 30% with scheduled data caching; shipped 3 real-time Power BI dashboards.
