Manager, AI Engineering @ Vector Institute | Women in Machine Learning | AI for Good
I am an industry professional with experience in AI applications and I am passionate about utilizing AI techniques to solve real-world problems challenging humankind. At Vector Institute, I am a part of the AI Engineering group. As part of my responsibilities, I lead and manage the development of Vector’s innovative AI software, machine learning reference implementations, build and lead a diverse and highly skilled team of AI developers, and work with researchers to identify promising AI technologies. At SkySpecs, I led the Inspection Vision team that is working on Computer Vision projects to automate and optimize the wind asset maintenance and repair industry. Additionally, I spend some of my spare time volunteering with non-profit initiatives like Women in Machine Learning and AI for Good - Innovate for Impact program.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's diverse project portfolio, including robotics, augmented reality, and medical imaging, indicates a broad interest and adaptability. Involvement with organizations like 'Women in Machine Learning' and 'AI for Good Foundation' suggests a commitment to community and ethical AI, aligning with a positive cultural fit. However, the target role of 'Data Analyst' is a significant pivot from their extensive ML/CV engineering and management background, which might indicate a mismatch in immediate role alignment, despite a broad skill set.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's experience as a Team Leader for Robocon and Joint General Secretary for a Debate and Literary Arts Society suggests leadership, teamwork, and communication skills. Managerial roles at Vector Institute and SkySpecs further indicate operational fit for leading technical teams. Volunteer work and board memberships suggest a proactive and engaged professional.
