Professional Experience ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ป #

  1. Senior Machine Learning Engineer

    Jun 2022 - Present

    Analysing sidescan sonar data and GAN based image simulation

    Internal promotion

    • Project managed and mentoring 2 interns for an augmented reality mission planning tool initially proposed by myself
    • Developed a custom MLFlow server for improving reproducability of ML experiments
    • Ownership over internal sidescan sonar simulation codebases
    • Maintenance of internal ML dependencies such as CUDA

  2. Machine Learning Engineer

    2020-2022

    • Developing custom generative adversarial network (GAN) solutions for sidescan sonar image synthesis
    • Improving internal tools e.g ray tracing for sidescan image simulation
    • Taking part in extra activities such as software engineering book club, external outreach and community engagement
    Languages:
    • C++
    • Python

  3. Data Scientist

    2019-2020

    Using ML and data science techniques to solve problems for a range of SME

    Projects:

    • Disease classification using deep learning on ultrasound images
    • Semantic segmentation and boundary reconstruction of satellite images using MxNet
    • Time series analysis for predictive maintenance using time series sensor data for natural energy sources
    • Designed a relational database structure for open-source protein structure data in python and SQL
    Languages:
    • Python
    • SQL

  4. Data Analyst

    2018-2019

    Point cloud & image analysis of super-resolution microscopy data

    • Point cloud analysis; this included cluster analysis (HDBSCAN, K-means) and colocalisation analysis (Ripley's K, probabilistic thresholding, SODA)
    • Image analysis; this included segmentation of biological images such as extracting cells from the background
    • Single particle tracking; Implemented techniques (velocity measures, nearest neighbour) to track the movement of a single molecule through time and space to effectively count the number in an image
    • Front-end development; Experience in developing client-ready dashboards using Dash, and interactive graph and web components using React and JavaScript
    • Took part in recruitment and external engagement events for the company
