Shikhar Chauhan is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer based in Antwerp with 11 years of experience applying deep learning and data science to real-world problems across finance, sustainability, and content safety. He has driven production multimodal Document AI at KBC and now builds ML systems at Duco, combining research-led approaches (graph neural networks, transformers) with pragmatic engineering and DevOps integration. His background spans startups and research labs—from developing harmful-content detectors at Factmata to AI for e-waste at imec—and includes mentorship and open-source contributions to PyTorch/vision and Visdom. Trained with a Master’s in Artificial Intelligence from KU Leuven and a BSc in Mathematics and Computing, he blends theoretical rigor with a hands-on ethos, often moving models from prototype to production. An under-the-radar strength is his cross-domain fluency: he routinely bridges document understanding, graph methods, and systems engineering to solve messy, deployment-focused ML problems.
