About Us
A focused research unit working at the boundary of optimisation, adaptation, and production AI.
Who we are
thinkingML is a research-led AI strategy and engineering advisory
for enterprise systems that must scale and perform under rigorous governance and assurance.
We are a strategy and engineering partner: technical strategists with PhD-level depth in adaptive optimisation
and production-grade AI.
Our work translates deep technical expertise, exemplified by our research-driven
Evolutionary Cellular Optimisation (ECO) framework, into actionable,
leadership-facing guidance. We provide the architectural blueprints,
governance structures, and strategic oversight necessary to transform AI from a
potential risk into a measurable, defensible competitive advantage.
Our value proposition is built on methodological rigor, a focus on engineering discipline
over magic, and the ability to navigate the complex interplay between
cutting-edge capability and operational reality.
Who you are
You are a senior decision-maker: a C-suite executive, board member or senior technical leader
in an organisation where AI is a strategic imperative. You are past the
basics of AI and are now grappling with the hard problems of scale,
governance, and competitive differentiation.
You need more than implementation partners. You require strategic counsel to escape
pilot purgatory, to institue robust AI governance and
assurance that withstand scrutiny, and to make critical
build-versus-buy decisions that will define your
market position.
You understand that the primary risks are strategic and operational, not merely technical,
and you seek a partner who can provide the rigorous, evidence-based frameworks needed to de-risk
AI adoption and turn it into a sustainable source of value.
Research-Driven by Design
Grounded in original PhD-level research and real-world system design
thinkingML's
work originates from advanced research in adaptive optimisation,
generative landscapes, and high-performance AI environments.
We bring that scientific foundation into leadership-facing guidance and
technical strategy, supporting critical decisions, validating architecture,
and aligning complex systems with real-world constraints.
From academic rigour to production readiness, we help organisations translate
research depth into measurable, operational value.
Machine Learning Architecture
Designs and refines foundational Machine Learning systems. Provides end-to-end oversight on architecture, training dynamics, and experimental implementation.
Scientific Oversight
Ensures methodological rigour and reproducibility. Guides peer review, publication, and academic alignment across research outputs.
Engineering Functions
Oversees full-stack development and system deployment. Maintains the technical backbone of experimental and production pipelines.
Research Processes
Supports data curation, baseline analysis, and model integration. Sustains continuous experimentation and literature-driven refinement.
Business Integration
Aligns Machine Learning capabilities with operational objectives. Maps business processes to system interventions and measurable outcomes.
AI Adoption
Explores augmentation and integration pathways. Helps stakeholders navigate capabilities, limitations, and deployment potential. (blog)
