Liam Clancy is a Staff Software Engineer with 16 years of experience building end-to-end web and ML systems, currently laying the groundwork for decentralised AI at Macrocosmos from London. He blends Design Management with hands-on engineering, shipping developer-experience tooling, interactive evaluation, and safety metrics for research teams—work shaped by five years at Google DeepMind and leading ML platforms at SuperAwesome. Comfortable as both a daily IC and a tech lead, he has delivered full-lifecycle MLOps, operational measurement UIs, and large-scale content moderation systems used at acquisition-scale. His background spans startups and exits (early employee roles and acquisitions including Epic and NICE), giving him a pragmatic product-first approach to complex research problems. An avid generalist, he deliberately focuses on ethically driven, research-oriented products for big-data visualization and ML safety, and even experiments with unconventional projects blending RL and creative expression. He brings rare breadth: from frontend UX and data viz to model evaluation pipelines, able to take ownership from concept to production without compromise.
