Top SchoolChase Duncan is a Staff Software Engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in ML/AI, particularly NLP and computer vision, and a strong track record of turning research into production systems. He built and deployed a deep learning pipeline for glioma segmentation used in 3D presurgical planning and led data collection with hospital partners, demonstrating both technical depth and domain collaboration. Earlier work includes engineering Java-based grounding systems for low-resource languages presented at DARPA Demo Days and shipping multi-exchange arbitrage strategies during an internship at a high-frequency trading firm.
