Senior🎓
Top SchoolHyunsung Kim is a founder and systems-focused engineer with 13 years of experience building AI-native platforms and bioinformatics infrastructure that bridge messy real-world science to durable technical systems. As Co-Founder of Coral and Founding CSO of Kepler, he’s turned LLMs, coding agents, and tool-use loops into reliable onboarding, automation, and agent-hosting workflows that cut setup and turnaround times from days or weeks to minutes. His background leading bioinformatics and platform efforts at Foresite Labs, Xaira, Illumina, and GRAIL reflects deep expertise in scalable scientific computing, workflow orchestration, and cloud infrastructure across thousands to hundreds of thousands of nodes. He’s particularly skilled at operationalizing fragile, agent-driven demos into products users can adopt—handling billing, OAuth, reliability, and self-healing pipeline patterns in production. Trained as a PhD in biomolecular engineering and bioinformatics, he combines rigorous scientific judgment with hands-on platform design to improve how teams build, analyze, and operate with AI.
