Top School

Soojung Hong is a Director and data scientist with 10+ years of cross-domain experience building production ML systems and research-driven AI models, currently leading LLM-based multi-agent services and client insight discovery at UBS in Zurich. She blends deep research (graph neural networks, transformers, GANs) with pragmatic engineering—deploying recommendation, profiling, and anomaly-detection pipelines for finance, location services, telecom and energy. Her background spans roles from lead research engineer at HERE to hands-on predictive analytics architect and earlier systems/software positions, giving her rare end-to-end fluency from sensor and GPS signal processing to large-scale Spark/Hadoop platforms. Trained at Sogang, ETH Zurich, and MIT professional programs, she pairs formal CS foundations with up-to-date ML practice. Colleagues would note her curiosity-driven approach: many of her projects combine classical clustering and signal techniques with cutting-edge deep learning to recover hidden structure (e.g., lane/geometry reconstruction and semantic search).
