About
Hello
I'm Thomas, an AI engineer based in Athens. I build things that think, talk, recommend, and occasionally challenge how things are done.
From conversational AI and intelligent recommendations at Cloudevo to legal tech at Netcompany and co-founding Oinoway, I've worked across industries that don't usually have much in common.
I like messy problems, ambitious ideas, and turning “what if” into something that actually works.
Approach
A clever demo is a start. A reliable product is the goal. I focus on accuracy, safety, speed and cost— not just impressive answers.
- 505 checks
- Tested a club recommendation system using historical examples, alternative approaches and a 10-week simulation.
- 56 test scenarios
- Checked how a newsroom assistant handles confusing questions, unsafe instructions and situations where it should say it does not know.
- 10–15% lower costs
- Reduced the running cost of a legal AI assistant by avoiding repeated work.
- When AI gets stuck
- Designed backup steps so product searches can recover when the first attempt fails.
- Built-in safeguards
- Worked with legal and marketing teams to balance accurate answers with appropriate safety rules.
What I do
- AI Assistants
- Assistants that answer questions, research information and help people complete tasks using your organisation’s data.
- Workflow Automation
- AI-powered processes that reduce repetitive work and support everyday business operations.
- Testing & Reliability
- Systematic checks to measure whether AI delivers useful, accurate and dependable results.
- Machine Learning
- Models that learn from data to recommend, classify and identify patterns.
- Making Data Usable
- Turning documents, databases and complex information into something AI can search and work with.
Experience
- CloudevoAI Engineer, Conversational AI & Agent Flow Specialist
- Built a personalised recommendation system for Tatoi Club (in user testing), a newsroom research assistant for ProtoThema (pilot, built independently), and an internal voice assistant. I also help colleagues adopt development tools, contributed to company AI guidelines and built an AI-assisted development workflow with human review.
- NetcompanyAI Engineer
- Worked on three enterprise AI projects: a live legal research and translation assistant, a product-matching system in production, and a building-regulations assistant in user testing.
- OinowayCo-founder & Tech Lead
- Co-founded a Greek wine discovery platform featuring 500+ wineries and over 1,000 users, including an AI assistant for finding relevant information.
Education
- University of SurreyMSc Artificial Intelligence
- Research project with the Surrey Sleep Research Centre: using machine learning and contactless sensor information to identify sleep stages. Achieved a 78% F1 score.
- Brunel University LondonBSc Computer Science
- Created an immersive virtual-reality experience exploring perceptual changes associated with schizophrenia, using Unity and C#. Featured in Made in Brunel.
