Hi, I’m Dawei Sun. I’m a machine learning engineer, and my work has taken me through quantitative trading, LLMs, recommender systems, and robotics — four rather different worlds, each with its own lessons about how learning systems behave once they meet reality.

Before that, I received my Ph.D. from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and my B.E. from Tsinghua University.

You can find me on LinkedIn and Google Scholar.
