Work Experience

Full Stack AI Engineer at HelloCityAI
July 1, 2024 - Present
Developed front-end UI components using Next.js 14, TypeScript, React 18, MUI, Storybook, and Tailwind CSS; wrote Jest unit tests for component reliability; implemented Auth0 + JWT authentication for registration, login, and profile management across the platform; built and maintained RESTful API endpoints with .NET 8, including full CRUD operations; added FluentValidation, Serilog, and EF Core migrations to improve back-end stability, and used AutoMapper for DTO-entity mapping. Wrote xUnit tests for service logic to ensure correctness. Integrated the ASP.NET Core API with a Python FastAPI microservice, using Redis + Celery for asynchronous AI task processing and workflow orchestration. Implemented structured Python multi-agents with LangGraph; built RAG pipelines with ChromaDB to improve answer accuracy; built multiple AI agents (chat, reasoning, summarization, web-search) leveraging GPT-4 mini + Tavily API. Deployed the full system on AWS EC2, RDS (PostgreSQL), ELB, ECR, Route 53, ac
Research Assistant at University of Adelaide, Faculty of SET
July 1, 2024 - January 1, 2025
Designed and built a local AI agent system to process raw MRI images end-to-end, including input, preprocessing, tumor detection, segmentation, and explanation. Trained classifiers (VGG16 and custom CNN variants) using PyTorch on BraTS13, achieving 81%+ tumor detection accuracy across edema, necrosis, and tumor core. Developed segmentation models (U-Net, autoencoders, Mask R-CNN) with 85–86% accuracy after backbone testing and hyperparameter tuning. Built a multi-stage pipeline where classification outputs feed into segmentation models, enabling automated workflows. Implemented LangChain-like agent patterns and prototyped a LangGraph-inspired modular flow coordinating preprocessing, inference, visualization, and reporting. Processed multi-format MRI data and built a reusable data preprocessing agent for normalization, augmentation, slice extraction, and model-ready formatting. Delivered the final system as a desktop Python + Tkinter application that runs entirely locally.
Teaching Assistant at University of Adelaide, Faculty of ABLE
July 1, 2024 - November 1, 2024
