Senior🎓
Top SchoolKenichi Iwatsuki is a Lead Research Engineer with a PhD in Computer Science (computational linguistics) and eight years of hands-on experience applying NLP and generative AI/LLM techniques to real-world problems. Based in Okazaki, Japan, he moves fluidly between research and engineering—designing what to build with LLMs, planning the development path, and preparing the data needed to deploy solutions. His career spans academic postdoctoral work and industry R&D at Nippon Steel and Mirai Translate, where he advanced practical LLM applications. Comfortable with both theory and production constraints, he brings rigorous evaluation habits from academia together with a pragmatic, results-oriented engineering mindset. An independent GitHub presence underscores that his personal explorations in computational linguistics are driven by curiosity beyond institutional affiliations.
