Data & AI Governance | Data Risk | Compliance | Patent-to-Governance Thinking
I work at the intersection of regulation, structured documentation, risk analysis, and governance-oriented data systems.
My background in patent engineering trained me to structure complex technical and legal information, identify hidden risks, coordinate cross-functional processes, and create traceable decision foundations.
Patent engineering is often misunderstood as purely legal or administrative work.
In practice, my experience involved structured monitoring, Freedom-to-Operate analysis, third-party rights monitoring, documentation of development activities, portfolio maintenance, external coordination, and decision support in a regulated technical environment.
I translate this experience into governance-relevant capabilities such as:
- Data lifecycle & ownership
- Data quality, metadata & monitoring logic
- Process governance & controlled workflows
- Risk identification & regulatory compliance
- Traceability, auditability & evidence preservation
- Third-party governance & cross-functional coordination

To make my previous work more transparent for non-IP audiences, I also provide a short explanation of what patent engineering involved in practice: monitoring, risk assessment, documentation, external counsel coordination, examination procedures, and portfolio governance.
β‘οΈ Patent engineering explained: https://github.com/pickhottea/patent-engineering-explained
Operationalizing high-risk AI governance through risk classification, human oversight, evidence checks, documentation, and auditability.
Data quality, ownership, escalation paths, lineage, monitoring logic, and ISO 27001-style control evidence.
Connecting patent-domain expertise with governed data architecture, retrieval logic, traceability, and decision-ready analytics.
