Hey! I'm Jiwoo. Let me introduce myself.

About Jiwoo Jeong

I work at Amazon AGI-DS, where I help shape reliable language data for agentic AI. At the intersection of linguistics and computer science, I design language systems and full-stack products that turn ambiguous human input into clear, reviewable experiences.

[Experience]

Amazon AGI-DS

Professional Experience
Machine Learning Data AssociateFeb 2026 - Present

Producing and validating language data used to train and evaluate agentic AI systems.

  • Analyze ambiguous user-agent interactions through semantic, pragmatic, discourse, and conversational context to determine intended meaning and consistent data outcomes.

  • Test new workflows and annotation conventions in pilot initiatives, identify edge cases, and provide structured feedback for broader implementation.

Professional Experience
Speech-to-Text Solutions Intern2021 - 2022

Evaluated technical-meeting speech-to-text output and analyzed recurring terminology, segmentation, and contextual errors with Python.

  • Proposed a pre-meeting vocabulary workflow that improved transcription accuracy by approximately 12-15% in technical meeting environments.

  • Troubleshot cloud-hosted data pipelines and standardized QA and delivery procedures, supporting same-day resolution of a critical ETL parsing issue.

Project
Language Engineer & NLP Systems Designer2026 - Present

Building a review-first English language and evaluation system for a multi-user household product and future Raspberry Pi kitchen assistant.

  • Designed a five-stage NLU framework that separates relevance, an 11-intent ontology, entity spans, household-scoped normalization, and joint-action validation into independently testable decisions.

  • Built structured, editable proposals that require user confirmation before changing inventory or shopping state, while logging corrections, cancellations, and unsupported requests as reviewable learning evidence.

  • Created nine annotation queues, versioned JSONL exports, dataset manifests, deduplication rules, and phrase-family leakage checks to keep generated training candidates separate from independently reviewed evaluation data.

  • Connected the language layer to a working Next.js, Cloudflare Worker, and D1 product with household authorization, append-only events, shared-state projections, and a reproducible Python baseline and evaluation pipeline.

Project
Full-Stack Product Engineer2026 - Present

Designing, building, and operating a link-first anonymous realtime chat platform across product strategy, UX/UI, edge architecture, trust and safety, and production operations.

  • Re-architected the original single-room Vanilla JS and Supabase product as a multi-tenant Next.js and Cloudflare system with explicit channel ownership, separate anonymous and authenticated identities, D1 persistence, Durable Object delivery, and protected R2 media.

  • Designed zero-account room entry, owner moderation controls, scoped private messages, temporary live sessions, platform-admin review queues, and support flows with server-side authorization at each trust boundary.

  • Diagnosed production reliability issues, reducing database-scoped channel initialization from 4–18 seconds to a limited ~80 ms post-cutover sample and replacing a reply lookup that accumulated 212.62M rows read with bounded, indexed reads.

  • Built route-health monitoring, alerting, queue triage, and reversible incident workflows while the product handled 6,517 created messages across public conversations and private DMs in one measured production week.

Project
NLP Project Lead2024 - 2025

Developed Python NLP pipelines and annotation categories for syntactic, semantic, and discourse analysis of literary texts.

  • Established three stable model-training labels while separating fine-grained linguistic distinctions into feature fields, improving consistency without losing analytical depth.

Project
NLP Developer / Linguist2024 - 2025

Built a Python NLP pipeline that generates personalized SAT and TOEFL practice content across configurable topics and difficulty levels.

  • Evaluated generated content for grammaticality, semantic coherence, answerability, and ambiguity, then used recurring errors to refine prompts and quality criteria.
