Jesse Qin’s Skill Map: Systems Thinking Across AI, Product, and Startup Ops

</aside>

Skills & Systems I Build With

What I do best is think across systems—blending AI, product, data, and startup execution into tools and strategies that move fast and scale well.

Below is a snapshot of my skill architecture, organized around how I build, lead, and think.

🧠 AI / ML / Automation

Turning intelligence into infrastructure

• Recommender Systems

  Built content and user-based algorithms at GETTR; re-architected search, personalization

• LLMs / Agents / Prompt Engineering

  Applied GPT-based workflows at Koodall (customer-facing content, internal tooling)

• Computer Vision / AR

  Used CLIP, CNNs, BLIP in short video recommendation engine

  Delivered real-time AR SDK for virtual try-ons

• AI Stack

  LangChain, AutoGen, Pinecone, Hugging Face, OpenAI API

  ML deployment: FastAPI, TorchServe

• Real Use: Koodall SDKs, GenAI platform, automation pipelines

🧩 Product & Growth Execution

From zero to v1 and beyond

• Product Management

  Roadmapping, MVP design, competitive strategy, user feedback loops

• Tech Strategy

  Owned TechOps at GETTR and Koodall; drove modular rebuilds (e.g., GETTR Lite, SDK design)

• Go-to-Market Infra

  Setup of Intercom, HubSpot, CRM flows, PLG loops

• Fundraising-Ready Architecture

  Designed scalable backend to support sales and investor conversations

• Real Use: Launched GETTR Lite App, Amadeus SDK, FaceAR SDK, Koodall.com

📊 Data / Analytics / Engineering

• Languages: Python, R, SQL, STATA
• Analytics Tools: Pandas, Scikit-learn, dbt, Jupyter, Metabase
• Experimentation: A/B testing frameworks, KPI dashboards, growth metrics
• ML Ops: Feature extraction, model testing, vector search, embeddings
• Real Use: Academic research, NYU MSBAi, short video ranking, sales analytics

🚀 Startup & Operations

Make it real. Make it sustainable.

• TechOps Leadership

  Built infra, reliability stack (99.99% SLA @ GETTR), security posture (WAF, DR, SLOs)

• Vendor Management & Cost Control

  Leveraged AWS, Intercom, GitHub, HubSpot startup programs

  Saved burn, protected runway

• System Design & Execution

  Delivered production-grade systems across cloud (AWS, GCP, Vercel, Supabase)

• Legal & Fundraising

  SAFE notes, investor decks, startup finance models (FP&A)

• Real Use: GETTR TechOps revamp, Koodall startup stack & strategy

✍️ Writing, Branding & Communication

Make complex things clear. Make vision feel real.

• Business Storytelling

  LinkedIn ghostwriting, investor emails, pitch decks

• Tech Writing

  API docs, developer onboarding, SDK quick-starts

• Public Communication

  X.com thought leadership, community building, personal website/portfolio

• Real Use: Koodall pitch deck, fundraising narratives, LinkedIn AI articles
