Independent developer and AI researcher with a strong algorithm background.
What I'm looking for
I am an independent developer and AI researcher with a robust background in algorithm engineering and data science. My journey began with a BSc in Applied Physics and continued with an MSc in Data Science from the University of Bath, where I graduated with Merit. I have worked with leading companies such as Ping An Technology and Tesla, where I honed my skills in developing advanced AI systems and data engineering solutions.
Throughout my career, I have successfully engineered production-level systems, including an insurance dialogue system at Ping An Technology and NLP models at Leqee that achieved 96% accuracy in sentiment analysis. My passion for innovation is reflected in my contributions to the open-source community, where I have developed fine-tuned Large Language Models and full-stack AI applications. I am committed to pushing the boundaries of AI technology while actively engaging in knowledge sharing and community development.
