Most of what people call "data science" is now doable with an LLM and a weekend. I focus on the messy, ambiguous, regulation-heavy gnarly problems where nobody is sure what the right question is. Often it involves getting hands on to find the data and signal that's really needed.
What I've done:
- AI verification of building and architectural BIM/CAD against 400 page ESG standards. (Days of work down to minutes)
- Part failure prediciton, saving a German automaker from lemon law recalls. ($20M+ exposure avoided)
- Oil & gas well and lease production forecasting.
- Real-time emissions detection for industrial smokestacks. ($75K fines per incident prevented)
- Revenue optimization and persona identification for debt collections (15-20% net revenue lift)
- LLM-based legal document extraction, reducing due diligence turnaround from 3 days to 30 minutes
- Built vessel piracy risk engine that informed naval escort deployment, contributing to fewer hijackings
Things I'm unwilling to work on: - Gambling.
- Ads/Surveillance.
- Payday loans/rent-to-own.
Email me with a short description of your problem. If it's hard enough, I'll reply within 24 hours.Remote: Yes
Willing to relocate: No

I'm a Product Engineer and a creative based in London. I’ve built full-stack applications across web, mobile, blockchain and embedded platforms. My client-side work includes React, Electron, Roku’s Scenegraph, and native iOS development with Swift and SwiftUI, always with a strong focus on UX and design-first thinking. On the service-side, I’ve worked with traditional service hosting, containers, and serverless, including (but not limited to) AWS, GCP, Cloudflare, Workers, CloudFormation, SAM CLI, nodejs, bunjs, MySQL, Postgres, NoSQL, grpc, Redis, Docker, nginx, and a few legacy tools best left unnamed (yes, including CodeIgniter and ftp).
I’ve also developed developer tools like CLIs and SDKs, primarily Typescript/JavaScript land, and have written code in systems languages such as Rust and Zig.
I care about clean code, great UX, developer experience, documentation, rapid iteration and automating workflows with CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Bash scripts, etc).
Also familiar with modern development practices by leveraging coding agents, such as pi, opencode, claude and LLM, including kimi over fireworks inference.

I am not good to make some advance algorithms (coding questions) as I was not 100% software developer, but I listened to peoples needs and coded for past 20 years to solve/improve problems.
Seeking project/freelance work where I can use knowledge to get you started.
I'm someone who enjoys building fast, reliable systems and solving complex technical problems. Over the past year, I've worked on everything from ultra-low-latency trading engines in C++ and Rust to building a high-performance CPU emulator from the ground up. I’ve had the chance to work with lead backend developers at startups, optimize systems for scale. I’m comfortable working across the stack, whether that’s building APIs with Express.js and TypeScript or diving deep into Kafka pipelines and distributed architectures. I care about writing clean, maintainable code, and I’m always up for learning something new or tackling tough challenges with a team.
