Richmond Alake is a Director of AI Developer Experience and seasoned ML architect with a decade of software experience and over five years focused on computer vision and deep learning. He has moved models from research to production for clients ranging from startups to large enterprises, and was the first hire in Slalom Build UK’s ML practice where he led MLOps, feature store adoption, and internal training. Richmond pairs hands-on engineering — including mobile and web development roots — with developer advocacy and education, having written 200+ ML articles that earned over a million views and earned recognition as a top Medium AI writer. He has taught and created professional ML courses for O'Reilly and Emeritus and contributed technical content for NVIDIA, demonstrating an aptitude for translating complex topics into practical learning. Based in London, he advises startups in the UK and US and now leads AI developer experience at Oracle, blending product-facing advocacy with deep technical delivery. An underappreciated strength is his end-to-end perspective: from frontend and mobile prototypes to scalable MLOps pipelines, enabling ideas to ship into real-world systems.
