Viet Nguyen is a CEO and machine learning engineer with nine years of experience building AI-driven products and teams in Vietnam, blending deep technical roots in computer vision, NLP and distributed systems with product and company leadership. At Techainer he led development of cloud-native offerings—eKYC, Docchain and Horus—that delivered measurable impact (30x faster bank onboarding, ~1M digitized documents, and converting ordinary IP cameras into real-time face-recognition devices). Previously he led research and engineering on OCR, layout analysis and information extraction at Cinnamon AI and contributed image-handling and memory-optimizations to the high-profile OpenNMT-py project, extending its neural MT stack to better support image data. With an MS in Mathematics and Informatics and hands-on experience as CTO and architect, he pairs mathematical rigor with practical system design to ship scalable ML systems. Outside work he pursues meditation and mathematical inquiry, reflecting a bias toward thoughtful, resilient product and team cultures.
