- Power Electrical and Propulsion Lead, and Electrical AIT Engineer working with Thales Alenia Space for the MicroCarb Satellite mission. This venture is a joint mission between UKSA and CNES which utilises a spectrometer instrument to characterise greenhouse gas fluxes on the Earth's surface and gauges how much carbon is being absorbed by oceans and forests. - Project Manager for a Horizon Scan activity for Navy Command with support from King's College London, and in collaboration with Futures Lab, Thales UK, Sirius Insight AI, and BMT. This Horizon Scan established the state of the art of AI/ML technologies that could be used for autonomous target recognition in anti-surface warfare. It looked at the development across a broad spectrum of commercial applications and reported on the maturity, challenges and development being conducted in industry and academia in object detection, data fusion, edge processing, synthetic data, and system assurance and resilience.

- Project Manager and Technical Lead for an intelligent AI object detection device to track and detect targets with full 360-degree coverage to provide a targeted response in the deterrence of pests, and for home security applications. This product has now developed from TRL 1 to 5 and is now being developed for further use cases and development into different markets.- Technical and AI Lead for an object detection edge-based AI demonstrator to process census data at Level Crossings in real time, developing the system from concept and basic validation up to a physical demonstrator currently deployed at Network Rail within six months. This project has also been considered for export opportunities with interest from the UK's DIT, New Zealand's KiwiRail, Australia's Rail Safety Systems, and Canada's Canadian Council for Public-Private Partnerships.
