I'm a senior software engineer with over 15 years of experience designing
scalable, high performance systems across industries like defense, medical,
travel and AI security. Most recently, in Vision Intelligence, I have led the
development of an Advance Intrustion Detection system that utilized C++, Python,
FFPMEG, and OpenCV. It also involved technology such as OpenVINO to optimize
inferencing for real time detection and Docker for cross platform deployment.

During the development, we have faced many challenges. For example, when we
first rolled out the system, we got users complaining about missing detection.
After investigation, 95% of the time is user did not setup the camera correctly,
like the camera was monitoring an area that is too far away for a person to have
enough pixels to be detected. In order to resolve this issue, I have setup
workshop to walk through all the limitation that our system has and making sure
our clients fully understand them.

Across my career, I've been focusing on reliable, user-focused systems. I'm
excited about bringing that mix of experience to Canva to make complex
technology simple.

I bring a strong mix of C++ systems expertise, real-time rendering experience,
and computer vision/AI deployment skills. At Vision Intelligence, I built video
analytics pipelines that combined detection, rendering, and efficient
H.264/H.265 muxing, cutting false positives by 95%. I’ve also worked across
medical, defense, and enterprise-scale systems, so I understand how to deliver
scalable, reliable solutions in complex environments. On top of the technical
side, I value mentoring and making complex technology simple for end users —
which I think aligns well with Canva’s mission of empowering the world to
design.
