Summary
Jungun Kim is a Lead Engineer based in Tokyo with 14 years of experience blending creative practice and technical delivery across embedded systems, interactive installations, and UX/DX consulting. Trained in media arts and communication design, he moves fluidly between circuit prototyping, embedded software, and computation-driven creative coding, often turning experimental concepts into event-ready products. At sonicjam he led innovative projects like a smile-recognizing gacha system, QR-driven vending mechanics, and brainwave-guided tour apps, demonstrating a knack for human-centered interaction design. He prioritizes tailored solutions over off-the-shelf tech, pairing rapid learning with pragmatic project leadership to align technology with customer needs. An active creative coder and NFT artist, he brings both aesthetic sensitivity and engineering rigor to multidisciplinary teams. Less obvious: his background in DSP and hardware prototyping gives him a rare ability to bridge low-level signal work with high-level user experiences.
