Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Garbett is a Principal Gen AI Research Engineer and multidisciplinary software leader with 11 years of experience designing human-centred AI, ubiquitous sensing, and civic technologies. He blends full‑stack engineering (Kotlin, Python, TypeScript, Vue/Nuxt) with UX research and prototyping to ship practical, regulated AI experiences—from a RAG-based legal assistant to wearable accelerometry solutions. At NatWest he leads Applied AI Experiences focusing on responsible, user-focused systems, while directing research and product work at Think Active Labs for public sector and academic partners. His background includes published UX research at CHI/CSCW and building deployed platforms during a PhD that foreground real-world evaluation and community commissioning. Comfortable bridging research and production, he pairs scene-setting prototypes with cloud-native delivery on AWS and a pragmatic appetite for interdisciplinary collaboration. An understated thread across his career is using sensing and personal data to design technologies that deepen self-understanding and civic participation.
