I'm the technical lead of a 17-person engineering team at Blackwired, a threat intelligence company, where I build LLM infrastructure and AI agents. Before that I built machine learning and low-latency trading systems in London, and founded a crypto wallet used by 50,000 people a month.

Policy in Context
Research paper · 2026
Does letting an AI agent reason before it acts make it safer? Across 83,584 test runs in two workplace scenarios, the biggest factor was whether the agent had read its rules. Reasoning helped it find those rules and apply them with judgement.

Entry to OpenAI's Parameter Golf challenge · 2026
OpenAI's Parameter Golf challenge asks for the best language model that fits in 16 MB and trains in under ten minutes. My entry lets a simple statistical model take over wherever it's almost certain what comes next, which improved the model's score. When a reviewer found an error in my headline number, I published the correction within a day.
