Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSamuel Seng is an AI researcher and seasoned software engineer with 12 years of experience building production-grade systems that bridge neural networks, brain-inspired vision, and AI-augmented user interfaces. Based in New York, he has led full-stack and ML efforts at Bloomberg—saving millions by stabilizing trading UIs and modernizing large desktop infrastructure—and now runs independent research and product work focused on construction-plan understanding and agent architectures. He is an active open-source author (including Bloomberg API providers and front-end contributions to the widely used Submitty grading system) and wrote the official Python tutorial for Google A2A. Samuel blends low-level systems and robotics experience (ROS, Gazebo, a 3D-printed robotic hand) with modern web stacks (Typescript, React, Next.js) to deliver practical tooling for domain experts. He’s also applied his skills to civic tech and education—datamining government records and teaching deep learning workshops in Cambodia—reflecting a mix of technical depth and community impact. Persistent curiosity about alternative learning rules (Hebbian, Hopfield, RTR L) fuels his research-driven product work and unconventional approaches to AI.
