Seungjun Lee

AI / Vision Research Engineer · SK Telecom

I'm a Vision & AI Research Engineer at SK Telecom, building computer-vision and multimodal AI systems that make it out of the lab and into real products. My focus is video understanding — human behavior recognition, real-time safety detection, and Agentic LLM/VLM pipelines. I've taken several of these systems from research prototype to nationwide commercial service, with 15 filed patents, a Minister's Award (ICT Award Korea 2025), and a 3rd-place finish at the CVPR AVA Challenge along the way.

Jan 2023 – Present
CareVia — Developmental-Disability AI Care
2023.05 – 2026.05
  • Built a multi-camera action-recognition system end-to-end and developed models & algorithms for 9 behavior classes:
pushkickpush-pulllie-downhit-headfalldownrunloiteringjump
  • Shipped a real-time commercial pipeline with face recognition (FR) + body re-identification (ReID) on embedded AI Box.
  • Developed a pose-estimation model trained on 3M+ images for behavior recognition, deployed on AI Box.
  • Minister's Award — ICT Award Korea 2025; live commercial service across 12 welfare centers nationwide since 2023.
Ego-view AI — “SynapsEgo”
2025.06 – 2025.09
  • Built a video semantic segmentation (event localization) model and LoRA-fine-tuned latest LLM/VLMs (Qwen3-MoE, Qwen2.5-VL) to surpass SOTA (Gemini-2.5-Pro) for a National Police Agency video-summary & report-generation project.
  • Designed a Recursive Agentic LLM pipeline for video segmentation and synthetic narrative generation.
  • Delivered a real-time SOP-based work-procedure recognition Agentic pipeline (Yonsei Nursing College PoC).
SK Hynix — Industrial Safety AI
2025.04 – 2025.06
  • Designed algorithm pipelines for 4 industrial-safety AI functions (fall, collapse, fire/smoke, intrusion), cutting false alarms by 96% and meeting the business-unit target ahead of schedule.
  • Result: early qualification for the SK Hynix main contract.
