Key Areas of Expertise (10+ years’ experience) • AI-Enabled Talent and People Infrastructure • Multi-Layer AI Agent Design and Workflow Automation • Start-up and Scale-up Operations • Executive Recruitment and Workforce Strategy • Embedding AI into HR Systems, Hiring Processes, and Evaluation Frameworks • Team Coaching and Capability Development I have over a decade of experience across operations, HR, and executive recruitment, working primarily with early-stage and scaling businesses. I partner with founders and leadership teams to build the structures, teams, and ways of working required to deliver against commercial goals. My focus is on turning strategy into execution. This involves defining operating models, clarifying ownership, and implementing practical frameworks such as SOPs, process maps, RACI, and decision-making structures. The objective is to remove ambiguity, increase pace, and enable teams to operate effectively as the business grows. A key differentiator in my work is the design and deployment of AI across talent and operations. I build multi-layered AI agent systems that integrate directly into workflows, supporting the full hiring and people lifecycle, from role definition and sourcing through to assessment, decision-making, and onboarding. This includes: - AI agents for sourcing, screening, and candidate engagement - Structured evaluation frameworks and AI-supported scorecards to improve consistency and hiring quality - Automated workflows across recruitment and HR to eliminate manual bottlenecks - Decision-support systems that enable faster, more informed hiring outcomes - AI embedded within HR environments to support performance tracking, documentation, and day-to-day operations The approach is always practical, integrating AI into existing environments so it is adopted, scalable, and aligned with business priorities rather than adding unnecessary complexity. Alongside this, I lead executive and GTM hiring as a strategic function rather than a transactional process. I work closely with leadership teams to define roles based on business priorities, build hiring roadmaps, and deliver targeted searches that balance capability, potential, and long-term alignment. I also focus heavily on team performance and leadership development. I support early GTM and operational teams operating in high-pressure environments, particularly where client relationships and revenue are at risk. This includes onboarding, coaching on complex client scenarios, strengthening commercial judgement, and improving consistency in execution. At leadership level, I help sharpen decision-making, accountability, and performance standards. In addition, I support individuals stepping into greater responsibility, helping them navigate complexity, improve judgement, and perform effectively under pressure. Overall, I work across people, operations, and AI-enabled systems, helping businesses build the structure, capability, and infrastructure needed to scale while maintaining control of execution.

Medical doctor (MBBS) and experienced AI content evaluator with over 18 months of hands-on data annotation and content moderation work at Outlier. I specialise in evaluating AI-generated text, images, and multimedia for quality, safety, accuracy, and policy compliance, which is exactly the work that makes frontier AI models better and safer. What I bring to AI evaluation projects: Assessed and moderated AI outputs across text, image, and conversational formats, flagging harmful, misleading, or policy-violating content with structured reasoning Applied annotation rubrics and ranking frameworks to evaluate AI responses by relevance, helpfulness, and safety risk Delivered clear, actionable written feedback directly to development teams to support iterative model improvement Documented findings using Google Sheets and Notion; consistently met daily review targets in a fully remote environment Why my medical background matters for this work: A medical degree trains you to analyse complex information under pressure, apply structured frameworks to ambiguous situations, and communicate findings precisely. These are exactly the cognitive skills that separate good AI evaluators from great ones — especially for health, science, and high-stakes content. I'm a strong fit if you need: ✔ AI content moderation & safety evaluation ✔ Text and image annotation ✔ Video content evaluation and QA ✔ LLM response ranking and RLHF-style feedback ✔ Medical or scientific content review ✔ Social media content policy assessment
