Shaun Chen

Backend Engineer

  Taipei City, Taiwan

Energetic personality with a passion for change, I graduated from the Institute of Applied Mechanics at National Taiwan University. During my Master's program, I focused on ultrasonic diagnosis and machine learning algorithms. After graduation, I worked as a medical computing engineer at Wistron, where I used Python to develop various medical solutions for approximately one year. This included designing machine learning algorithms and various image processing pipelines. Throughout this experience, I realized the essential role of backend skills in implementing AI. Subsequently, I underwent six months of training, starting as a full-stack developer and later transitioning to a project-oriented backend role. Currently, I am employed as a backend engineer at HTC, where I am primarily responsible for the development of various external websites and internal CMS systems for the company.
