Summary
Hyunsik Jeon is a Senior Applied Scientist at Microsoft with nine years of experience translating ML research into efficient, on-device large language models. He holds a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from Seoul National University and built a strong research-to-production bridge during a postdoc at UC San Diego, where he developed visually-aware, efficient, and calibrated conversational recommender systems presented at KDD, RecSys, and CIKM. Hyunsik combines deep academic rigor with practical engineering, focusing on latency- and resource-constrained ML that enables real-world deployment. His work emphasizes conversational and sequential recommendation models that balance performance with efficiency, an uncommon focus that directly informs on-device LLM design. Based in Redmond, he brings both research pedigree and hands-on system-building experience to product-focused AI challenges.
