Ioan is a recent Cambridge graduate with a master's in engineering, switching to the manufacturing engineering tripos (MET) based here in the IfM during the second half of his studies. These studies included projects with several companies, including working with the endoscopy unit of West Suffolk Hospital to find ways to reduce wait times and working with the preventative maintenance team in the port of Felixstowe to improve the preventative maintenance scheduling of ship to shore quay cranes. The final 6-week long project involved working with the large Spanish tech company, Glovo, looking at using reinforcement to improve product swap suggestions for out of stock groceries by incorporating user and synthetic feedback by using a multimodal LLM.
Currently working with the Smart Manufacturing Data Hub team, connecting with SMEs to engage with and provide free IoT digital solutions, enabling them to improve their digitisation capabilities.
