Questions?
You can start chatting with Jamal before you get started.
I am a computational neuroscientist and AI researcher with experience in machine learning, data science, and AI. Over the years, I have worked across academia and applied research, building quantitative models for complex real-world problems. I now help people navigate careers in AI, research, and data science, especially those trying to move between academia and industry. My approach is practical, honest, and tailored to each person’s strengths and goals

Jamal’s AI & ML Engineering Qualifications
Experience level: Manager
10+ people coached for AI & ML Engineering
I'm a researcher at the University of Cambridge working on AI for neuroimaging. I have a PhD in Computational Neuroscience and nearly 10 years of experience building ML models across healthcare, energy, and tech. I've worked with everything from deep learning and computer vision to time-series forecasting and fraud detection. I can help you understand AI concepts, build models, or solve data science problems in a practical way.

Why do I coach?
I care about coaching because I know how challenging it is to navigate AI, data science, and research without a clear path. Much of what I learned, I taught myself through independent study and practical work, not just formal training. That experience taught me both the subject matter and the learning process behind it. I want to help others build skills, confidence, and direction more efficiently than they would alone.
