Building production agentic systems that process real-time equity data across 2,000+ instruments, with 31 integrated tool APIs. Proven track record of reducing latency 4x and infrastructure costs by 60-80%. UCL Computer Science.

Currently: Founding Engineer at a fintech AI startup (multi-agent orchestration, real-time financial data, SEC filings, market intelligence) and co-founder of The Hack Collective — one of the UK's largest hackathon communities (650+ members, partnered with Kickstart Global).

Fintech AI Platform | Founding Engineer (Nov 2025 - Present)

• Architected a production multi-agent orchestration system with 31 financial APIs covering equity screening, dark pool analysis, SEC filings, and market intelligence
• Built multi-tier caching (L1 in-memory, L2 Redis) with graceful degradation, cutting API costs 60-80%
• Designed a schema-driven component rendering pipeline (50+ Zod-validated components) powering the Claude Agent SDK frontend with integrated E2B sandboxes
• Implemented structured JSON logging (OpenTelemetry-style), Langfuse distributed tracing, and correlation ID middleware

The Hack Collective | Co-founder (Sep 2025 - Present)

• Co-founded one of the UK's largest hackathon communities with 650+ members
• Partnered with Kickstart Global, Hacker's Unity (10k+), and HackEurope
• Collaborated with London Venture Capital Network for the Student Tech Forum 2026

Grounded - AI Fact-Checking Platform | 1st Place Winner, Lovable Hackathon Multi-stage prompt chain with Perplexity's Sonar Pro tracing claims through citation hierarchies across 6+ sources per query. Built with React, Supabase, Deno Edge Functions, and ReactFlow visualization.

Dex - Live Facial Recognition for Networking | 6th Place Winner, Cursor London Full recognition pipeline: Luma event scraper, Apify LinkedIn enrichment (72 profiles), Facenet512 embeddings, and live camera matching with RetinaFace. Sub-2-second identification.

Homiq - AI-Powered Property Search Engine | Perplexity Hackathon Draggable, resizable widget system on an infinite zoomable canvas using react-grid-layout. Server-side streaming from Perplexity's Sonar Pro for full research dashboards.

Cancer Subtype Classification | R, glmnet, caret, e1071, GEOquery Classified AML subtypes on the GSE13159 clinical genomics dataset. Compared Random Forest, tuned RF, and tuned RBF-SVM. Best model achieved 82% accuracy.

Comparative Sentiment Analysis | Python, TensorFlow/Keras, NLTK Compared Bidirectional LSTM (128-dim embedding, 64 units) against LinearSVC with TF-IDF on the FinancialPhraseBank dataset. LinearSVC achieved F1 of 0.74, outperforming by 7.8%.
