Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Evangelidis is an AI/ML software developer and founder with 17 years of experience translating complex R&D problems into production-ready algorithms and scientific software, currently focused on generative and agentic AI for decision support and scientific automation. He founded and led AI|ffinity—growing it to a 12-person TechBio team, securing ~€2M in non-dilutive funding and €0.5M in investment, and delivering experimentally validated small-molecule hits through integrated NMR, AI, and cheminformatics workflows. His background in cheminformatics, computational and structural biology, and protein NMR underpins hands-on work in LLM-driven knowledge extraction, automated NMR analysis, and closed-loop model retraining for drug discovery. Now an independent consultant, he combines agentic AI research pipelines with founder-level due diligence to support competitive intelligence and market landscape analysis in biotech and life-science investing, publishing open-source tools to reproduce his workflows. Notably, he pairs deep domain expertise with practical product delivery—having shipped tools like 4D-GraFID and deepHitExplorer that bridged method development and experimental validation.
