From AI capability
to reliable delivery.

I’m Kenny, an AI application and systems engineer.
I bring language, retrieval, and multimodal models into real workflows.

01 / SELECTED DELIVERY

Professional work · Roles & outcomes

· Technical lead

AI comics generation

Beyond generation,
quality checks and recovery matter.

Connected script understanding, asset extraction, and storyboard generation. Led quality evaluation and acceptance criteria.

2024 / RETRIEVAL & ANSWERING

Enterprise document Q&A

Combined paragraph hierarchy, multi-path retrieval, and dynamic thresholds into a document Q&A workflow.

02 / ENGINEERING JUDGMENT

How I move the work forward

Questions I return to ↗
01

Define what good means first.

Turn quality concerns into measurable criteria. Use a fixed evaluation set to check whether changes help.

02

Build failure into the workflow.

Make long tasks recoverable and bound correction costs, so one failure does not stall delivery.

03

Connect models to real work.

Check the workflow from retrieval and generation to service orchestration, bringing results to acceptance.

03 / OPEN-SOURCE WORK

Ideas become useful tools, too.
