I lead applied AI work at ISx4, building production-oriented ML, LLM, agentic, and computer vision systems. My work sits between research depth and engineering delivery: turning ambiguous AI opportunities into reliable systems with evaluation, observability, security, and workflow fit built in from the start.

A few representative systems where the signal is in the delivery shape: translating ambiguous AI opportunities into systems teams can evaluate, operate, and improve. Some are private, internal, or client-facing, so I focus on the engineering pattern rather than repository links.

• RunAI for GAA Applied AI for sports and organisational workflows, from product discovery through deployment-aware ML delivery.
  workflow modelling · applied ML · product discovery · operational fit

• ISx4 ASQ -- Internal AI Assistant Enterprise assistant for ISx4 with governance, knowledge access, evaluation, and client-readiness built into the workflow.
  LLM systems · enterprise knowledge access · governance · evaluation

• AOP -- Agent Observability Platform Platform work for observing, evaluating, and improving AI agent behaviour in production-like environments.
  tracing · failure analysis · feedback loops · agent operations

• Customer Handling AI for Aviation Client Enterprise AI for aviation customer-handling workflows where safety awareness, reliability, and operational constraints matter.
  workflow automation · customer intelligence · reliability · operational constraints

Together, these projects reflect the work I enjoy most: moving from unclear AI opportunity to reliable system, with evaluation, monitoring, and workflow fit built in early.

How I tend to create value: by moving between research, systems thinking, product judgement, and production engineering without treating them as separate worlds.

• Shape the AI opportunity Turn ambiguous ideas into scoped systems, delivery plans, evaluation criteria, and practical technical direction.
  discovery · architecture · technical leadership

• Build LLM and agentic systems Design assistants, retrieval workflows, tool-using agents, governance paths, and feedback loops that teams can trust.
  RAG · agents · evaluation · governance

• Translate ML and computer vision research Bring statistical ML, deep learning, gaze/intention inference, and visual modelling into usable decision-support systems.
  computer vision · representation learning · human signals

• Ship production-ready AI Build APIs, data pipelines, containers, monitoring, observability, and deployment paths that can survive real workflows.
  MLOps · observability · cloud · reliability

A few professional landmarks behind the systems work. CV available on request.

My research background sits behind the engineering: computer vision, dyadic interaction, gaze and visual cue modelling, human intention inference, and reliable ML. I use that depth to build AI systems that can handle noisy data, deployment constraints, and evaluation pressure.

I am also a Visiting Fellow at Queen's University Belfast, where my work connects machine learning, human-robot collaboration, and reliable visual inference.
