Maxwell Flitton

Maxwell Flitton is a software engineer who works at a medical engineering AI company called Monolith AI, and was an R&D software engineer in financial tech before. In 2011, Maxwell achieved his Bachelor of Science in nursing from the University of Lincoln, UK. While working 12 hours shifts in the A&E departments of hospitals, Maxwell obtained another degree in physics from The Open University in the UK, and then moved on to another milestone, obtaining a postgrad diploma in physics and engineering in medicine from UCL in London. He has developed an open source machine learning deployment software called DeployML, which can be downloaded via pip, and he teaches computational medicine at Imperial College London every now and then.

I want to thank my academic supervisor, Christos Bergeles, who went above and beyond in supporting me in academic pursuits. I also owe thanks to the staff of Charing Cross Hospital, Accident and Emergency department, London, who helped me grow as a person. I also want to thank my colleagues at Auto Service Finance, Rimes, and Monolith AI, who have supported me to grow as a developer.
