Taejin Chun is a Senior Software Engineer based in Mountain View with 10 years of experience building production AI and deep learning systems, currently working on Ads recommendation at Meta. He has a strong ML engineering background spanning computer vision, time-series forecasting, and NLP from roles at SAP, Arimo, and startups, and he helped launch the open-source "Human First AI" framework. Taejin combines research-caliber education (MS from Carnegie Mellon) with hands-on product delivery—shipping TensorFlow-based APIs, model ensembles, and hyperparameter tuning improvements in open-source projects. He frequently bridges product and technical roles, having served as Data Scientist and Product Manager, and brings practical experience deploying models at scale for cloud APIs and real-world services. An unspoken strength is his cross-disciplinary early career work in financial embedded systems and multilingual market expansion, which informs a pragmatic, systems-oriented approach to ML productization.
