MLOps Meetup July 2025 (Two talks!)

​Tonight (on our 3 Year Anniversary!) we’ll be hearing from:

• ​Pat Wang on “MLOps Meets GenAI: Evolving AI Deployment for the Generative Era". From Pat:

​I am a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Datatonic, focused on making Al useful in the real world. I specialise in building scalable MLOps platforms to standardise and accelerate the journey from model development to production, following MLOps best practices. I also work on designing and deploying production-ready Generative Al agents that are robust and efficient.

• ​Mark Mc Naught on "An Agentic DS Team: Experiments within NatWest on augmenting the end-to-end Data-Science workflow, from Data Collection to Model Deployment". From Matt:

​I am an MLE Hub Lead in a team of 10 Machine Learning Engineers in NatWest's Data & Analytics division. I've built ETL engines and co-developed a lightweight MLOps framework over the years. Right now I'm trying to scale business value by applying AI/ML to customer franchises at NatWest.

​🍕 Pizzas this evening are sponsored by Skyscanner; jobs. Skyscanner will also be providing some post-event 🍺 Beers in 56 North.

​We will be hosted again in the Bayes Centre.

​Plan for the evening:

• ​18:30: doors open

• ​18:30 -> 19:00: chat / pizza

• ​19:00 -> 20:00: talks + q/a

• ​20:30: tidy-up and head along for some post-event 🍺 Beers in 56 North; this is very nearby but don't worry we'll shepherd you there if you don't know it!
