Daeyeon Won is a Staff Software Engineer at Samsung Electronics with 10 years of experience building backend systems and operating LLM backend servers. He combines deep production experience in large-scale AI infrastructure with a strong systems and embedded-systems background from contributions to high-profile open source projects like Node.js and IoT.js. At Node.js he focused on improving test coverage and runtime correctness for networking and stream features, while on IoT.js he hardened builds and diagnostics for resource-constrained devices—skills that inform robust, observable server platforms. A KAIST-trained computer scientist who progressed through Samsung’s scholarship and early-career programs, he brings both research-caliber rigor and practical shipping velocity. Based in Gyeonggi, South Korea, he often bridges cloud-scale LLM deployment concerns with low-level reliability fixes, making him adept at turning complex, safety-critical requirements into resilient production systems.
