Hey, I'm Inthu 👋

The AI thing started early

My first encounter with AI was in 2016, doing research on Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis at the University of Leicester — a precursor to the Transformer architecture that powers today's LLMs. Looking back, I probably should've stuck with research. But when I graduated, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go into defence — and that detour through national security, government, and cloud gave me something I wouldn't trade: I know what it takes to ship AI in heavily regulated environments where you can't just "move fast and break things."

Before AWS

I was at Leonardo and then 6point6 (since acquired by Accenture), working across defence, national security, and government. I can't talk about most of those projects — but the work touches people's lives every single day, even if no one knows about it. I love seeing it in action going about my day to day.

I'm a trusted technical advisor and strategic partner to some of the largest financial institutions in the world, helping them define and execute their first major AI transformations — the kind of projects that fundamentally change how these organisations compete.

Earlier at AWS I built a service lifecycle management tool that saved over 194,000 manual man-hours in 6 months. It worked well enough that it got integrated into AWS Health and adopted across the global organisation. I also worked directly with the Bank of England and FCA on incident management frameworks, led crisis response for critical financial services incidents, and spoke at AWS Summits across London, Paris, and Dubai.
