Building resilient, data-driven platforms across financial services and technology

Head of Data Engineering

Regents Gate Capital

Dec 2023 - Present | London, England, United Kingdom

As the Head of Data Engineering at Regents Gate Capital, I design and implement robust data solutions using Python and AWS, creating scalable data pipelines that empower our team to make informed, data-driven decisions. I actively monitor daily operations, ensuring our data infrastructure is optimised for performance and reliability. Additionally, I build intuitive dashboards and reports tailored for our Investment and Operations teams, providing them with real-time insights to support strategic decision-making.

Sr Lead Software Engineer (VP)

JPMorgan Chase & Co. - Capital Connect

Sep 2022 - Dec 2023 | London, England, United Kingdom

I joined as a senior software engineer and immediately took charge of our CI/CD strategy, designing and implementing automated pipelines that accelerated feature delivery and enhanced deployment confidence. Within months, I formed and led a dedicated monitoring and observability team, building dashboards and alerting that kept our platform healthy and responsive. Partnering closely with the AI/ML group, I crafted interactive model visualisations and introduced MLOps best practices to streamline the development, testing, and deployment of machine learning workflows.

Lead Engineer

Jun 2021 - Sep 2022 | London, England, United Kingdom

I modernised software engineering workflows by spearheading CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, rigorous code review standards and type-driven Python development practices. I then architected and deployed a container- and cloud-first ETL platform on Azure, utilising Kubernetes and Argo for parallelisation and dynamic scaling, thereby compressing data-generation cycles from hours to minutes.
