Summary
Yumnah Mohamied is a senior research scientist with 12 years of experience bridging academic rigor and applied machine learning, now focused on speech and vision models at Deepgram. With a PhD from Imperial College and a strong postdoctoral track record at Edinburgh, she has deep expertise in self-supervised learning, transformers, CNNs, LSTMs and generative models applied to ASR and medical imaging. She excels at mentoring and teaching—having supervised MSc and PhD students and lectured on ASR—while also coordinating technical groups and cross-disciplinary collaborations. Comfortable translating research into product-ready solutions, she seeks leadership or consultancy roles where an AI scientist’s technical judgment accelerates innovation. A less obvious strength is her early background in computational fluid dynamics and C++ tooling, which gives her a unique systems-level perspective on modelling and numerical stability.
