What I'm looking for

I seek a role building production ML and computer vision systems where I can own end-to-end implementation, work cross-functionally, and grow in research-to-product impact within a collaborative, fast-paced team.

I am an AI engineer and product-minded builder with hands-on experience designing end-to-end ML systems, computer vision pipelines, and LLM-based applications. I have built production-oriented solutions including OCR document automation, demand forecasting frameworks, and factory CV QA automation.

My background spans research and industry: I implemented steerable decoders for LLMs at ETH Zürich, built LangChain-based Chinese copywriting and latent-diffusion image generation pipelines, and created observability and experiment versioning with MLflow on Azure. I combine clean-architecture engineering with practical ML experimentation.

I win in competitive, fast-paced environments — hackathon prizes and multiple programming contest medals reflect my problem-solving and delivery focus. I am eager to join teams that value rigorous ML engineering, product impact, and rapid iteration.
