Work Experience
Founder | CTO
Axom
- Led a team of three engineers with a mix of skills in deep learning and computer vision, industrial programming, web application, and hardware.
- Developed industrial visual inspection systems based on deep learning for industrial production lines with high-quality standards within pharma, medical device, and watch industries.
- Defined the complete development workflow: CI/CD, MLOps, containerization, coding standard, and documentation. I provided technical guidance and coding support when needed in various areas such as PyTorch, web application, C++.
Data Scientist
Swiss Post
- Did machine learning for customer scoring, for large customer datasets.
- Worked on data mining and data visualization for process optimization for large parcel tracking event datasets.
- Did machine learning for predictive maintenance, for large machine log datasets.
Data Analyst
BMW
- Analyzed and optimized the production system such as lead time and inventory disposal reduction, thanks to production data visualization (SQL) and predictive simulation discrete event simulation (DES).
- Developed and implemented a decision support tool to calculate and compare the production costs between several investment scenarios.
- Interacted with various stakeholders in production, controlling, and strategy.
