Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJizhizi Li is an AI research scientist based in Sydney with a PhD in Artificial Intelligence and a decade of cross-disciplinary experience building production-grade ML systems and full-stack platforms. Currently driving foundational generative AI research at Canva and Leonardo.ai, she blends deep learning, computer vision, NLP and knowledge-graph expertise to turn novel algorithms into deployed products. Her background spans enterprise data integration and graph analytics at Tabcorp, industrial-scale CV/NLP systems at JD.com, and end-to-end MLOps and web/cloud engineering from freelance and startup work. Comfortable moving between research and engineering, she has a track record of publishing academic findings while shipping robust models and services in production. A less obvious strength is her breadth across both ontology/semantic-web modelling and hands-on software engineering, enabling solutions that bridge complex data architectures and user-facing AI features.
