Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolYiqun Fu is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer based in Beijing with nine years of experience building production-grade robotics and autonomous driving systems. He has shipped high-impact features at Huawei (early 5G Massive MIMO) and Baidu Apollo, where he led QA for open-source releases, designed VectorNet/TNT-based prediction models, and saved significant CI costs through automation. At AutoX he worked on interactive prediction, planning, and inverse reinforcement learning, and he now contributes ML expertise to NVIDIA. He is a pragmatic full-stack ML engineer who moves models from data pipelines and CI to deployed autonomy stacks, and his GitHub contributions include debugging and evaluation tooling for the widely used Apollo platform. Academically grounded with advanced degrees and international study in robotics and innovation management, he combines deep systems experience with an inventors’ mindset—evident from a top-ranked machine learning idea at Huawei. Open to opportunities that merge robotics, AI research, and real-world product engineering.
