AI EngineerSingaporeSMU Information Systems · 2027

AI systems that follow rules — and know when to bring people in.

I design multi-agent workflows that follow rules, pause for a person when they should, and keep their evidence beside every claim.

Selected work, in detail.

Each project separates what I built from what the team built.

No. 01 — Multi-agent AI · 2026

finAI — the coordination layer

How a rule-first Clarifier and a deterministic Orchestrator keep a team's specialist agents inside policy.

Team prototype · SMU IS4000 / SMU-X · wealth-advisory use case

Built by me

  • Rule-first Clarifier that turns requests into typed intents
  • Deterministic Orchestrator and plan admission
  • Single-use approval cards

Team system

  • Specialist agents, built by teammates
  • Test-mode specialist providers

Engineering decisionsMade in my coordination layer

  • Structured intent before planning
  • Policy-fixed plans, admitted deterministically
  • Withhold, don't substitute, when client context changes

No. 02 — Corporate onboarding · 2026

Corporate Onboarding

A recoverable case workflow: when evidence conflicts, the case pauses, is reviewed, and resumes from where it stopped.

My contribution

  • Co-developed the team's proof of concept
  • Contributed to the review-and-recovery workflows

Team systemSix-person team

  • Registry lookup (mock/sandbox)
  • OCR-assisted extraction
  • Reconciliation and ownership analysis

Engineering decisionsTeam-level architecture

  • Typed blockers halt a named step when evidence conflicts
  • Reviewed cases resume from saved checkpoints
  • Mock integrations and mock submission
No. 03
SafeTrace

Local-first computer-vision evidence review that links findings to their source frames · internship prototype in a team repository

My contribution: React/FastAPI integration, local workflow hardening, the evidence-review experience and the hosted-frontend-to-local-backend connector.

Engineering approach

  1. i.

    Deterministic safeguards

    Rules stay the authority; models assist inside boundaries.

  2. ii.

    Human oversight by design

    Exceptions pause for a person instead of producing a substitute answer.

  3. iii.

    Evidence-driven development

    Findings link back to their source, and limits sit beside results.
