Ai Lead

I'm an AI Lead and founder with a strong track record in building data-driven, decentralized systems. At Taraxa, I led the design of Echo, a decentralized Telegram data aggregation protocol, and founded TrendMoon, a social analytics platform processing 20k+ Telegram groups in real time. My work combines AI, blockchain, and large-scale data pipelines to extract actionable insights from community behavior and social signals.

With over 5 years of experience across AI, data engineering, and blockchain infrastructure, I’ve designed and deployed smart contracts for decentralized data ingestion, orchestrated AI agents for trading strategies based on mindshare and sentiment, and advised on staking systems and protocol integrations.

Previously, I worked at Quantexa, where I used big data technologies (Scala, Spark, Elasticsearch) to support AML and financial crime investigations for tier-one banks. My background also includes ML PoCs at TCS, and early engineering experience with BAE Systems.

I'm looking for roles at the intersection of AI, blockchain, and data infrastructure — where I can help scale real-world systems, build intelligent agents, or contribute to protocol design and data analytics. Open to both leadership and hands-on technical roles.

Data Scientist/Engineer Consultant
Quantexa
2019 - 2022
• Using Scala and Spark to aggregate Big Data, performing ETL to transform AML, transactional data into document-based data it in order to load into Elasticsearch. • Aggregation, processing and migration of data on large bank datasets depending on clients needs to fix their data inconsistencies in order to help users extract useful insights in financial crime when using the platform. • Administrate performance tests to the company platform using Gatling Framework to stress test Elasticsearch clusters up to 40 nodes using Kubernetes and helm for deployment. • Optimise elastic search cluster configurations for performance, implement snapshots and restoration mechanisms. Achieved this with the help of monitoring tools like Grafana, Kibana and GCP tools. • Development of new score implementations to enhance or better detect AML and Tax Evasion behaviours from network data and document data using aggregated world wide datasets with transactional data from the largest Danish Bank. • Using Jupiter Notebook and Python for Data and Graph analytics from the score implementation models used on the networks. Developed analytical toolkit library to extract and visualise insights about customers/business behaviour as well as model tuning for better AML detection and fulfilment of compliance requirements.
BAE Systems Engingeer
BAE Systems
2014 - 2014
• Inventory management and process optimisation for better ground service support. • Had the opportunity to suggest a new automated way of inventory management in order to solve an existing problem in inventory management, developed an implementation plan and presented to senior stakeholders.
