Hi, I’m Jarod Hong, an AI Automation Specialist based in Singapore. I design and ship end-to-end AI workflows that cut manual work and boost decision speed across operations, HR, and customer-facing teams. In my current role at Nansen (Blockchain Analytics), I built 20+ AI workflows from scratch and deployed multi-agent systems to optimize output accuracy, achieving a sub-1% failure rate across 20+ deployed AI solutions while saving 100+ hours weekly across functions like HR, customer support, marketing, and sales. Previously I founded several venture-backed startups in Singapore and Malaysia, and led Growth & Operations at Quest, where I streamlined onboarding, scaled users from 30k to 120k, and drove revenue. I enjoy solving ambiguous problems with cross-functional teams and delivering products that move the needle.
