Sophia Kang Team Lead RSVP Approved
Software Development Engineer at Amazon
Software engineer, Speech recognition
I'm a software engineer working at Amazon. Prior to my current job, I worked as a software engineer intern in machine learning for acoustic processing in text-to-speech (speaker adaptation) and as a machine learning engineer intern for natural language processing in text-to-speech (real-time model inference and prediction optimization). I was also an intern at MBZUAI based in Abu Dhabi in the NLP department. I conducted independent research in code-switching synthesis through intonation unit detection with speech recognition models and was awarded scholarships at ACL 2024 in Bangkok, Thailand and at Interspeech 2024 in Kos, Greece. I am interested in multilingual spoken language processing and natural language processing, as well as multimodal translation.

PM, frontend, project ideation
I am a PM at Microsoft. I work in security and AI. Currently, I’m safeguarding the agentic OS from new novel vectors of attack originated from AI. I also work in leveraging LLMs and SLMs for security. In my free time, I develop apps. I have deployed 2 so far.
Video games
SFT
RL
SLM
I built mybigbro.com
This is an AI agent that walks users through their favorite videogames

Harshil Patel RSVP Approved
AI/ML Engineer at N/A
Software engineer, system design
I am Harshil, a growth oriented individual from NY. Being an AI Enthusiast, I believe that AI has an immense potential to solve humanity's most difficult challenges. Formerly as an AI Engineer, I've got the opportunity to learn and build enterprise-graded applications using SOTA LLMs and ML. These projects have significantly increased the conversion rates and boosted productivity of the entire team. I am currently building an AI product that has started to show some real potential in simulating realistic customer interactions for training purposes. This product allows users to refine customer service skills through lifelike AI-driven scenarios, enhancing practical learning. I’m eager to connect with fellow AI experts at AI Tinkerers to learn and perhaps share my knowledge as well.
I bring expertise in AI with hands-on experience building and deploying enterprise-level AI systems. My strengths include developing AI agents, real-time conversational AI, and sales intelligence solutions that drive significant revenue growth. My background includes successful projects in AI automation and data analysis. With an MS in Computer Science, certifications in Machine Learning, and 2+ years in AI roles, I offer a strong foundation in AI-driven solutions and real-world applications.
I am working on an AI product-- EngageLabs AI. This product is based on AI agents inspired by BabyAGI that adapts to an individual’s persona and simulates diverse customer interactions for realistic training scenarios. Users can refine their customer service skills through realistic simulations. It provides interactions that mirror genuine customer encounters, as the most valuable lessons come from direct interactions with customers.
