About
Hi, I'm Mohamed. I was Co-Founder & AI Lead at
Nordlys Labs, where our LLM routing system scored 75.6% on SWE-bench Verified (December 2025), above the best published single-model baseline at the time (Claude Opus 4.5, 74.4%), and scaled to 500+ users.
I'm a Computer Science & AI graduate of
Royal Holloway (First-Class Honours, 2026). My research covered transformer attention and KV-cache compression. I've also worked on adversarial robustness at the ISG Smart Card & IoT Security Centre and sports analytics at
Stats Perform.

Co-Founder & AI Lead
- Co-founded Nordlys Labs and led ML research on LLM routing: picking the best model per request based on task signals.
- Designed and shipped a routing system that scored 75.6% on SWE-bench Verified (December 2025), above the strongest published single-model baseline at the time (Claude Opus 4.5, 74.4%).
- Scaled the platform to 500+ users; built the production stack on Python / FastAPI / LangChain with Redis + PostgreSQL behind a Dockerised deploy.
- Selected for the Antler accelerator program; presented the MoM (Mixture of Models) framework at an online meetup.
