Senior🎓
Top SchoolCheekean Chan is a Senior Algorithm Engineer based in Singapore with 9 years of experience building production-grade machine learning and computer vision systems. He has applied deep learning across search, NLP and smart-city initiatives—fine-tuning BERT and transformer variants for long-form text, engineering embedding-driven similarity search at scale, and deploying models via AWS SageMaker, Batch Transform, Lambda and ECS. Prior roles at Shopee, Edelman DXI and Siemens showcase a blend of research-grade model development and pragmatic MLOps, including Spark/Airflow data pipelines, Terraform IaC and real-time inference. Equally comfortable in C++ and Python, he pairs algorithmic rigor with product delivery, having built inventory and reliability forecasting, vehicle detection/route optimization, and large-scale topic modeling systems. He maintains a public-facing technical presence through blog posts and GitHub, signaling a continuous curiosity for applied CV/NLP challenges.
