I am a passionate learner and have swiftly adapted to, and driven strong results in, complex spaces such as AI/ML, genomics, bioelectronics, antimicrobial resistance and cloud engineering in my career so far.

Just after turning 18, I moved from my hometown Lahore, Pakistan to the UK to study Biomedical Engineering at King’s College London. While at KCL, I worked on projects such as building a soft robotic heart to simulate the human heart motion (Best Undergraduate Thesis Prize), inducing cancer cell death through mechanical stress (King’s Research Excellence Award), and 2D to 3D image reconstruction to aid pacemaker implantation for cardiac resynchronization therapy during an internship with Siemens Healthineers.

After my university degree, my passion for healthcare tech led me to the GSK Tech Future Leaders Programme where I expanded the product marketing site aimed at healthcare professionals, gskpro.com and built a SaaS product portfolio for Galvani Bioelectronics - a joint medical device start up between GSK and Verily Life Sciences (Alphabet). At Galvani, I also started exploring Google Cloud Platform and decided to invest some time to further develop my technical skills to help me partner effectively with engineers in future product roles and capably handle data and cloud architecture problems.

So, for the next couple of years after the Future Leaders Programme, I worked as a Cloud Platform Engineer where I got to be hands on with Google Cloud Platform, learn all about infrastructure-as-code, JavaScript, Go and build reusable cloud solutions. I also managed the migration and modernisation of 1400 external facing sites over to GCP.

Following this deep dive into cloud computing, I returned to product and built a greenfield product to publicise new data for antimicrobial resistance disease awareness to support a multi-million dollar antibiotic launch.

Shortly after, I took on a product role in the GSK.AI research hub with world leading scientists and engineers where I built a rapidly growing product leveraging AI/ML and experimental data to accelerate discovery of new medicines.

I am now thrilled to be working as a Product Manager at Isomorphic Labs, DeepMind's new sister company and one of the newest members of Alphabet building on the AlphaFold breakthrough and redefining drug discovery using Artificial Intelligence.
