Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Wood is a data science consultant and founder of Fast Data Science with over a decade of experience delivering production ML solutions across NLP and computer vision, particularly for healthcare, pharma and large-scale consumer datasets. He advises and implements end-to-end projects—from strategy and technical due diligence to deployment on Azure/GCP—helping organisations extract value from messy text, imaging and behavioral data to predict churn, recommend products, and automate document understanding. Clients include NHS England, Boehringer Ingelheim, Tesco and CV-Library, where he produced actionable models that reduced operational waste and revealed non-obvious drivers of attrition. A Cambridge MPhil graduate and Microsoft Azure Data Scientist Associate, he blends research-grade techniques (deep learning, CNNs, seq2seq) with pragmatic cloud and engineering practices to deliver scalable Dockerized solutions. Notably, he is selective about engagements, operating as a consultant or contract lead rather than taking permanent roles.
