About Me

Machine Learning Lead at Scopic Software and Open Source Contributor at Neural Research Lab. I build production ML systems across both Cloud and Physical AI — cloud-served LLMs to on-device inference on edge hardware. Focus areas: local and privacy-first AI, high-performance computer vision, and AI security.

End-to-end across the stack — dataset design, model training, optimization, deployment, monitoring. The goal is tools developers actually reach for, running on real hardware at real cost.

Currently: leading ML at Scopic, shipping AnyLearning, writing about edge inference and LLM tooling at vietanh.dev.

Open Source

Projects I lead and maintain, accumulating 5K+ GitHub stars:

  • Nôm VN — Vietnamese NLP package: diacritic restoration, register classification, retrieval, OCR with diacritic-aware metrics, and license-tracked evaluation sets. Compliance-first for Vietnam's AI Law 134/2025.
  • EdgeVox — On-device voice-agent framework. ROS2-native, multi-language, safety-first agent architecture. Targets robots, desktop apps, and embedded systems.
  • AnyLearning — Offline, privacy-respecting computer vision labeling and training toolkit
  • Llama Assistant — Privacy-first offline AI desktop assistant (Llama 3.2, DeepSeek R1, RAG, voice, multimodal)
  • AnyLabeling — AI-assisted image/video labeling with Segment Anything + YOLO. 3.4k+ stars.
  • DaisyKit — Cross-platform AI SDK for computer vision and ML. 300k+ PyPI downloads.
  • OpenADAS & VIA — Open-source ADAS and autonomous driving. NVIDIA Jetson Project of the Month (2020).

70+ technical posts on vietanh.dev covering edge AI, CV deployment, and LLM tooling for developers who ship production systems.

Focus Areas

  • Local-first, privacy-respecting AI applications
  • High-performance computer vision and perception

  • Jul 2025 - Present: Machine Learning Lead - The first Machine Learning Lead at Scopic. Overseeing ML/AI Projects and collaborating with cross-continental teams to build innovative AI-powered software solutions that meet the diverse needs of our global customer base. Conducting extensive research on cutting-edge machine learning techniques and algorithms. Performing technical interviews for Machine Learning Engineer candidates.
  • April 2024 - Jun 2025: Senior Machine Learning Engineer.
Oct 2021 - April 2024

Samsung SDS R&D Center Vietnam

Viet Anh at Samsung
  • Architected the system and developed key backend modules in the AI Core MLOps project – a no-code platform for labeling, training, and deploying AI solutions for vision inspection, OCR, and NLP (14 AI use cases).
  • Trained models and developed algorithms for inspection applications, deployed successfully in Samsung's factory.
  • Awarded: AI Research Lab "The best employee of the year" 2022.
  • Awarded: Samsung SDS Hanoi "Employee of the month - April 2022" - recognized as "Key person to design MLOps architecture of Al-based Inspection System".
Oct 2020 - Oct 2021

VinGroup (VinAI + VinBigData)

Self Driving Engineer
  • Joined Autopilot project at VinAI Research as an AI Engineer. Automated the data collection process, contributed to hardware, localization & mapping, LiDAR research, and a self driving car demo of Vingroup.
  • Oct 2020 - Feb 2021: Participated in Vingroup AI Training Program for 120 engineers. Leader of a 4-engineer team to build 2 open source projects: Push-up Counter and VN AI Doctor.
Sept 2019 - Oct 2020

Kaopiz Software AI Team

  • Built AI core for Image Processing, OCR, object detection, and segmentation.
  • Optimized and deployed models for servers, desktop apps, mobile apps, and embedded systems.
2015 - Aug 2020

Education

Viet Anh at HUST

Went to Hanoi University of Science and Technology, one of the best universities in Vietnam to study Computer Science. Here I established this blog at vietanhdev.com (changed to vietanh.dev later).

2009 - 2014

Self-taught programming

Minichess program

Learnt programming at 12 on an Intel Pentium 4 with 1GB RAM. First program was in AutoIT — it calculated the perimeter of a triangle from three measurements. Wrote a hard-drive manager the same year. Then dropped it.

Came back in 2014 with a chess program that used the Spike chess engine to play against humans — also in AutoIT. Between those, I just dreamed of becoming a computer engineer.
