Jun Min is a Senior Software Engineer and AI/ML specialist with a PhD in Computer Science and over a decade of experience building end-to-end AI systems across LLMs, computer vision, and recommender systems. He has led production-grade ML work at Microsoft and now Meta, combining research rigor from a CMU postdoc with hands-on engineering that spans data engineering, back-end reliability, and cloud deployments. A core contributor and maintainer of a highly starred open-source AI project and active in notable repos like Microsoft’s computervision-recipes and the recommenders project, he ships reproducible notebooks, unit tests, and dataset scaling improvements. His work includes practical systems fixes—Spark submission reliability, dataset parameterization, and webcam-based model demos—showing a focus on making ML work in real environments. Based in Los Angeles, Jun blends academic depth with product-driven execution and a playful engineer’s culture hinted at by a GitHub bio that prefers coffee and music as prerequisites for work.
