Ciro Javier Diaz Penedo
With great pleasure, I am recommending Alan Chen to you. I am a Project Supervisor and Lead Researcher at Healthcare Systems R&A Inc., and I have supervised Alan, a Software Engineering Research Assistant – ML, from May to August 2023. Alan is an exceptional professional in the area of Artificial Intelligence. Alan has a deep understanding of machine learning methodologies to tackle data-driven problems. He has the intuition to identify the cause of problems of diverse nature and propose solutions, which he, in turn, can adapt and implement. Thus, it also highlights his exceptional coding abilities; in particular, Alan is very effective in producing highly efficient codes, vastly improving the computational complexity of existing ones. A high level of reasoning, clarity of ideas, and ability to explain them also stand out among his qualities. Alan joined the Mining Exploration Team, working on gold deposit modeling in the Quebec region. During this time, he was assigned to design and implement convolutional neural networks to extract image features associated with a magnetism map. These features were crucial to train the predictive models we are currently using. At the same time, Alan led a group of 5 software engineers in which he was in charge of assigning tasks and ensuring results. His availability to collaborate with his colleagues and his commitment and involvement with the project are also noteworthy. Ultimately, Allan is the person to whom you give the most challenging task because you know that he is the one who will find the best solution.
