API Wrapper Generator
My first task as a software development intern at Epimorphics was to create a Python API wrapper for the FSA Food Alerts API (https://data.food.gov.uk/food-alerts/ui/reference). This wrapper makes consuming the API much easier and allows users to process and analyse the data the API provides without having to worry about the details around accessing the API.

Devi-NT: a model validation tool
While studying for an Engineering Degree in Computer Sciences at INSA Toulouse in France, I had the opportunity to intern for 3 months at Epimorphics as part of my 4th year studying. I was attracted to Epimorphics because of their previous work with the Environment Agency, as I wish to work for companies who care about environmental issues, and because I was interested in learning more about semantic web and linked data while working for a company that publishes open data.

Machine Learning with Linked Data: a Demo
While studying at the University of Edinburgh, I had the opportunity to intern at Epimorphics throughout the summer on one of their data-oriented projects. I was able to further practice my skills in machine learning by developing an algorithm for a database matching task, seeking to match addresses from one dataset to a preferred standard format. The project was engaging and the team friendly, making it a pleasure to work for them.

I was particularly interested in a position near Bristol and shortly found out about Epimorphics via LinkedIn.
