Senior🎓
Top SchoolPeter Huo is a Co-Founder and software engineer with 14 years of experience building full-stack systems and ML-driven data solutions, currently focused on eliminating busywork for teams through autonomous AI. His MEng and BS in Computer Science from Cornell underpin hands-on work ranging from semantic parsing and fine-tuning LegalBERT for regulatory search to building RESTful APIs and dynamic React frontends for urban technology projects. He has taught multiple advanced CS courses at Cornell, blending research on summarization and syntactic priming with practical engineering in data management and operating systems. Based in Ithaca, NY, Peter combines startup product-building with academic rigor and a knack for translating NLP research into production-ready retrieval and classification pipelines. An unexpected thread across his roles is consistent emphasis on improving human workflows—whether via curriculum design, API ergonomics, or AI that reduces manual indexing and search tasks.
