     My dissertation focused on incorporating Lagrangian Mechanics into physics-informed neural networks. My key contributions include,
     - Creating and optimising the core physics procedures in JAX to improve correctness compared to legacy implementations; allow for their use in loss functions; and reducing runtimes by a factor of $10^4$.

     I joined a team working designing and developing software for processing the results of the 2021 Census. After the end of my placement I was kept on to assist with the next phase of product development and solution design. In this role I worked with sensitive data from the Census in isolated production environments and thus obtained SC clearance. Key contributions include,
     - Taking a leading role as release manager for the product and was heavily involved in requirements gathering for the new features.
