My job is to improve the efficiency and accuracy of a comprehensive molecular diagnostic test for childhood cancer. This is crucial to the scale-up of the ZERO precision medicine program (>5-fold increase in number of tests). * Developed and deployed an AI-driven tumour variant prioritisation algorithm (Python, SQL, docker, git)* Designed a new process for rapid reporting * Managed a small team of data scientists

* Built an epidemiological model using Bayesian statistics (R, Stan). Model was used by various government agencies and large companies around the world to support decision making and scenario planning around Covid.* Implemented a new Covid Test and Trace CRM system for a government department * Built a new markdown optimisation engine for a retailer which delivered 10% profit uplift (demand forecasting, linear programming, Python packages such as sklearn, PuLP) * Designed and implemented a new personalised marketing tool for a telco (causal inference, random forest)

Provided statistics and bioinformatics consulting to various research groups in the Faculty of Science. Our collaborations resulted in over 10 refereed journal publications, including two senior author publications.Lecturer in charge of a Data Science masters level course with over 200 students (Computational statistical methods). I received one of the highest student feedback score of 4.6/5.
