Jake D is an AI Engineer based in London with 10 years of software engineering experience and graduate-level training in Machine Learning and Autonomous Systems. He has led end-to-end production voice AI systems—designing low-latency STT/LLM/TTS pipelines, auth services, and CI/CD at scale—while personally authoring the vast majority of a mission-critical codebase and driving platform reliability and cost reductions. As a technical lead he has overseen teams, secured six-figure contracts by resolving pen-test issues, and delivered a 20x increase in recurring revenue through a successful SaaS migration. He combines deep ML and computational neuroscience interests with practical cloud-native expertise (GCP, Kubernetes, FastAPI, ArgoCD) and front-end TypeScript work. Jake’s background includes tutoring and academic representation roles that reflect strong communication and mentorship skills, and an uncommon early-career mix of bioengineering exposure from NTU. He’s driven by shipping production ML systems that are auditable, performant, and cost-efficient.
