Engineer by training, researcher by drift.
I'm an AI engineer and software engineer currently serving as a Staff Sergeant with the Republic of Korea Air Force, where I build computer-vision systems for runway integrity.
Before the service, I helped found aiXamine at QCRI — a platform that stress-tests language models against safety benchmarks. I'm a Carnegie Mellon CS '22 grad, with a minor in Mathematical Sciences.
I've been moving since I was three. Seoul, then a small town in the US, then back to Seoul, then India for secondary, then CMU, then Qatar for work, then home again. Cultures stack, like middleware. The interesting work happens in the seams.
What I'm doing this week.
Two papers out. Two manuscripts in progress.
- Published: ROKAF Runway Crack Dataset — KOSAP Vol. 1 No. 2 (Dec 2025)
- Published: Deep Learning for PCI Assessment — KOSAP Vol. 1 No. 1 (Aug 2025)
- In preparation: How Far Do Lightweight Pattern Guards Get for Coding-Agent Tool Safety?
- In preparation: RepOrbit: An Interpretable Event-Sourced Index for Repository Management
- Pulling Korean military service to a close in Q4 — looking for what comes next
Six years, three time zones.
AI Engineer · Staff Sergeant · Squad Leader
Led the squad that built and deployed an AI-driven runway pavement evaluation system at an active ROKAF airbase. Constructed a 231,347-image dataset — 52,800 real captures augmented with 178,547 alpha-blended synthetic images across 9 defect classes (SSIM 0.98163, FID 4.2145) — published as the ROKAF Runway Crack Dataset in KOSAP (Vol. 1, No. 2, Dec 2025) as first author. Co-designed the PCI scoring pipeline around YOLOv11, achieving 86.8% detection accuracy and a 98.2% reduction in manual assessment time; published in KOSAP (Vol. 1, No. 1, Aug 2025). Full project lifecycle as technical lead.
Research Engineer
Co-developed aiXamine — a black-box LLM safety evaluation platform with 40+ benchmarks across 8 security dimensions. Built the modular reporting + visualization architecture; evaluated 50+ models across 2K+ exams, surfacing vulnerabilities in GPT-4o, Grok-3, and Gemini 2.0. Also investigated backdoor Trojan attacks on code-focused LLMs (finetuning + susceptibility testing).
Software Engineer
Built a multi-channel notification system (SMS, email, push) for the consumer fintech app. Migrated payment processing to a compliant platform under regulatory scrutiny. Designed and shipped a Clubhouse-style waiting list + lottery system tied to FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.

Things I built that went live.
Runway Evaluation System
Live · ROKAFDetects cracks and surface defects on airbase runways and computes PCI scores from high-res imagery. In operational use — 86.8% detection accuracy, two KOSAP papers published.
aiXamine
Live · publicA black-box LLM safety platform that runs repeatable exams across bias, robustness, jailbreaks, and other risk dimensions. I helped build the benchmark harness and reporting system.
Papers and conference work.
How Far Do Lightweight Pattern Guards Get for Coding-Agent Tool Safety?
TraceGuardBench measures unsafe tool calls in coding-agent traces and tests lightweight, task-scoped guards before execution. It covers secret access, destructive shell use, network exfiltration, and instructions embedded in untrusted tool output.
RepOrbit: An Interpretable Event-Sourced Index for Repository Management
RepOrbit turns Git and GitHub history into reproducible repository timelapses and explainable Repository Management Quality Index (RMI) trajectories, connecting code changes with issues, reviews, CI, releases, and maintenance signals.
Music Tagging Graph Neural Network with Tag Labels
MTGNN is a graph neural network framework for music auto-tagging. It adapts ATGNN's graph-based audio-tagging idea to music by redesigning node generation around semantic and timbre features, then uses a CLAP-initialized Graph Transformer to model dependencies between tag labels.
ROKAF Runway Crack Dataset: Construction and Application of a Large-Scale AI-Based Runway Defect Detection Dataset
A large-scale runway defect dataset built from real airfield captures and synthetic augmentation for AI-based crack and surface-defect detection.
Deep Learning for Pavement Management System: Proposing an Automated Pipeline for Pavement Condition Index (PCI) Assessment
An automated pavement-management pipeline that combines runway defect detection with PCI scoring to reduce manual inspection work.
aiXamine: A Comprehensive Safety Evaluation Platform for Large Language Models
A safety-evaluation platform for large language models, covering bias, robustness, jailbreak, and other benchmark-driven risk checks.
