Software Engineer • AI & Automation

Hi, I'm Matty Bell

I build software around AI, automation, and machine learning — mostly tools that solve awkward problems and end up being genuinely useful.

About Me

Matty Bell at Northumbria University
Northumbria University Graduate

I’m a Software Engineer who likes building things that are practical, fast, and a bit ambitious.

I studied Cyber Security and Computer Networks at Northumbria University, which gave me a solid grounding in networking, security, and how systems behave when things go wrong.

Most of my work now sits around Python, Java, C#, and C++, whether that means building automation tools, desktop utilities, or applications that need to be reliable without becoming overcomplicated.

Technical Support Engineer

Technical support across Oak’s employee app and intranet platform

I currently work at Oak Engage in Newcastle as a Technical Support Engineer. Day to day that means handling support tickets, reproducing bugs, helping customers work through issues, and making sure problems are clearly documented for the teams fixing them.

Day-to-day

Diagnosing issues, reproducing bugs, and giving customers clear next steps without dressing simple answers up in a load of jargon.

Platform support

Working across Oak Sites, notifications, messenger, media processing, mail delivery, and the other moving parts people rely on every day.

Customer journey

Helping customers from onboarding through to launch and ongoing support, including pointing them towards the right training and help-centre resources.

Collaboration

Working closely with internal teams so recurring issues are raised properly and customer feedback actually turns into product improvements.

AI Overclock Tuner

GPU monitoring with LLM-backed recommendations

The AI Overclock Tuner is a GPU monitoring tool that reads real-time metrics like clock speeds, temperatures, power draw, and hash rates, then passes that data into an LLM layer to suggest better overclock settings.

It also includes a live dashboard, historical logging, and trend tracking, so it is easier to see what is actually working instead of guessing and hoping for the best.

NetDash Pollen ID

Computer vision for pollen grain detection and identification

NetDash is an end-to-end computer vision pipeline for automated pollen grain identification. It combines YOLOv8 object detection with Hough Circle Transformation to tighten up localisation and improve classification accuracy.

The pipeline processes microscopy images through multiple stages — from raw image preprocessing to neural-network-based detection, geometric refinement, and final species classification. Useful for environmental monitoring, allergy forecasting, and forensic palynology.
