//001About

Background
and approach.

Production systems in Python — computer vision, optimisation, analytics, and LLM/AI tooling — for environments where deployment conditions, not the model, are the hard part.

As a lead, I hire, mentor, and run performance reviews, leading by example and building inclusive teams — while staying close to the work itself, from shop floor operators to executives.
