Zhiwei Xiong is a Senior Algorithm Engineer with nine years of experience bridging academic research and production ML, currently focused on face anti-spoofing and deepfake detection at Shopee. He completed an industrial PhD through Alibaba/NTU working on single- and multi-modal image aesthetics and personalized federated learning, applying research to real-world systems. Prior roles include research engineering at NTU—where he led development of a frailty prediction algorithm and Windows-based clinic management tools—and sensor integration work at Panasonic, giving him a practical full-stack flavor from embedded to cloud. Comfortable in both research and product settings, he has a track record of shipping robust algorithms and integrating heterogeneous data sources. Active in student leadership and community service, he pairs technical depth with communication and stakeholder coordination skills honed as Internal VP of NTU Chinese Society. A less obvious strength is his ability to translate interdisciplinary user studies into deployable models, demonstrated by his work turning elderly needs assessments into new service offerings.
