Omschrijving

I make AI trustworthy enough to act in the physical world. Over a TU Delft PhD and a couple of peer-reviewed papers, I built end-to-end systems that take raw sensor data and turn it into uncertainty-aware decisions for safety-critical assets in aviation, defence, and manufacturing, exactly the reliability problem AI is now hitting at scale.

As Co-Founder & CEO of Prognora, I am translating this expertise into a commercial ML decision-support platform for condition monitoring across aviation, defence, maritime, and heavy industry; sectors where an unplanned failure is measured in downtime that cannot be scheduled and consequences that cannot be undone.

Good fit for: predictive maintenance and condition monitoring systems, anomaly/fault detection on sensor data, remaining-useful-life prediction, uncertainty-aware ML for regulated or safety-critical products, and turning a research prototype into something production-ready.

Where most ML engineers stop at a notebook, I focus on what survives in production: model robustness, calibration, edge-case behaviour, and integration with maintenance workflows.
