Nicolas P.

Data Science | AI Engineer

I build data and software systems that solve real, complex problems, across industries, at production scale. I'm a data scientist and software engineer with 5+ years of experience delivering across healthcare, insurance, financial services, and e-commerce. My background combines a rigorous quantitative foundation, actuarial science, statistical modelling, machine learning, with hands-on full-stack engineering, so I can take a problem from model design all the way to deployed application. A Big 4 consulting background at Deloitte, building ETL pipelines, Power BI dashboards, and machine learning models for enterprise clients, gave me the discipline that shapes every engagement: structured thinking, defensible outputs, and zero tolerance for black-box results. I also run Aura Services, a Cyprus-based consultancy delivering AI agents, SaaS platforms, and automated BI pipelines to SMB clients across Europe. What I deliver: • AI & LLM Engineering — Agentic workflows, RAG pipelines, Claude/OpenAI API apps, MCP servers, n8n automation • Full-Stack Development — Next.js, React, FastAPI, Supabase, Node.js — deployed to Azure, AWS, or GCP • Data Science & ML — Fraud detection, classification models, anomaly detection, automated reporting pipelines • Actuarial & Quant Analysis — Risk pricing, loss reserving, Monte Carlo simulation, financial modelling • Business Intelligence — Power BI, Tableau, executive dashboards, end-to-end ETL pipelines • Systems Integration — Cross-platform API frameworks, e-commerce backends, cloud infrastructure Education: MSc Data & Decision Analytics, Southampton | BSc Mathematics & Actuarial Science, Leicester — First-Class Honours, 6 actuarial exemptions
