Behind the work

A little
context.

Owen Cheung
AI Engineer · Bath, UK

I'm Owen, an AI Engineer at LexisNexis Risk Solutions and a final-year Computer Science & AI student at the University of Bath. I stayed on as a contractor after my industrial placement to develop a self-initiated prototype into a funded internal pilot.

I care about systems that learn: representation learning, embeddings with the right geometry, and agentic systems that do real work. I’m heading toward AI research and engineering.

Away from the screen I snowboard with Bath Snowsports, pull a lot of espresso, and build mechanical keyboards — which is how I ended up typing at 193 wpm (and designing TypeForge).
