Summary
Cindy Tseng is a Senior Staff Machine Learning Engineer in Mountain View with 8 years of engineering experience and 5+ years focused on speech technologies, including ASR, speech translation, false trigger mitigation, and language identification. She has a strong track record of taking research to production—authoring papers and patents and delivering ASR architectures that improved performance by up to 20% and translation systems that outperformed competitors. Her background in electrical engineering and deep hardware knowledge (from multiple Intel roles) gives her a practical edge in optimizing models for latency, memory, and real-world constraints, such as a sub-10MB false trigger mitigation system that cut invalid detections by 91%. Cindy routinely bridges academia and industry, contributing to ICLR and ICASSP submissions while shipping robust, domain-adapted models in commercial products. Colleagues rely on her to resolve thorny production gaps between unit tests and real deployments, and she’s demonstrated an uncommon blend of RTL/system design experience with modern ML engineering.
