Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBlake Cook is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer based in Melbourne with 10 years of experience bridging mathematical neuroscience and production ML. Trained in applied mathematics and mathematical biology, he moved from modelling nonlinear PDEs and stochastic systems in epilepsy research to shipping robust ML solutions for biomedical signals like EEG and ECG. At Seer and now Montu he has owned the full pipeline from dataset engineering and model development to cloud deployment and MLOps, prioritising code quality, testing and maintainability. He brings a probability- and PDE-informed perspective to ML problems, which helps him design principled approaches for noisy, complex physiological data. Outside work he’s a self-described “maths person” who can’t quit Vim, hinting at a pragmatic, keyboard-first engineering style.
