A short operating brief

Context

I'm an AI & Data Engineer with 6+ years building critical-scale infrastructure — from processing 8 billion events/day for UK Critical National Infrastructure to designing LLM-powered workflows for telecom, supply chain, and secure network automation.

My focus sits at the intersection of GenAI, LLMOps, and distributed data systems — turning experimental AI into production-grade pipelines that actually scale.

Currently building secure AI systems and orchestration tooling at Ciena.
