Focus areas
- Bringing Applied Intuition's self-driving stack to Korea, starting from zero-shot baseline evaluation
- Running the local data loop: collection, upload, and post-processing
- Hardware-in-the-loop for capturing and replaying raw, pre-ISP sensor data
Interests
- Running models on real hardware, not just Colab
- Collecting AI tools: agents, LLMs, whatever ships
- A hardware background that still shapes how I write code
May 2026 – Present
Application Engineer
Applied Intuition · Seoul, S.Korea
- Bringing Applied Intuition's self-driving stack (SDS) to Korea by operating the HQ-built data loop locally, from zero-shot baseline evaluation to data collection, upload, and post-processing, and translating findings into technical direction for customers.
- Proposed a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) setup with a Tier-1 automotive sensor supplier to capture and replay raw, pre-ISP sensor data for evaluating its imaging and sensing technology on the SDS; serving as Korea-side DRI for the build.
Jan 2025 – May 2026
Research Engineer (Technical Project Manager)
Hyundai Motor Company · R&D Center · Gyeonggi, S.Korea
Technical PM on a large-scale (600+ personnel) Robotaxi production project.
- Established and operated 20+ meeting bodies with the client and internal teams to streamline decision-making.
- Minimized risk to critical milestones (certification, firmware deployment) by proactively negotiating test-vehicle production capacity and applying a priority-based resource-allocation strategy.
- Collaborated with legal and security teams to review project deliverables for regulatory and security consistency.
Jul 2024 – Aug 2024
Software Engineer Intern
Samsung Research · Seoul, S.Korea
Built operational tooling for an upcoming LLM service launch.
- Developed a monitoring system for LLM API servers, implementing previously missing observability needed for launch.
- Built Kubernetes clusters and a Dev server to support scalable infrastructure.
- Worked with admins to design detailed API analytics and real-time alerting.
Mar 2022 – May 2024
Undergraduate Researcher
Robotics Lab, University of Seoul · Seoul, S.Korea
- Grand Prize, Autonomous Robot Race. Led a software-architecture overhaul, refactoring a monolithic script into a modular framework that unblocked advanced algorithms including Model Predictive Control (MPC).
- 1st Place, RoboCup Autonomous Robot Manipulation Challenge. Engineered a high-fidelity training dataset for the winning model via precise polygon labeling and a novel data pipeline benchmarked from international competitors.
- Presented three research papers (2 posters, 1 oral) at academic conferences based on competition findings.
