Building AI products that run where people are.

I build software that puts AI to work for real people.

“I turn ideas into software that ships, and I care just as much about making it understood.”

Hi, I'm Juwon Lee, a product engineer who takes ML from dataset to deployed interface. I care most about the moment an idea becomes something people actually use, and understand. On most of my projects I've owned the work from planning through deployment.

My core is web and application development: Next.js and React on the front, with Supabase, Firebase and serverless functions behind them. I wire AI in as a working component rather than a demo, from an in-browser MobileNet v2 transfer-learning module students train themselves to an OpenAI image backend that watermarks and stores everything it generates.

Work Experience

Seoul Robot & AI Science Museum

Education R&D · Developer

2026.03 - Present · Full-time

  • Research, build, and run the interactive AI education web apps visitors use live on the exhibition floor; the Art Lab ran there through June and July 2026, going from 3,049 images in June to over 8,000 in July.
  • Design education programs end to end: a smart-farm curriculum commissioned by Yangpyeong Education Office, built with its full server and web-app stack, taught as a demo class to 5 high-school students in August 2026, with the 15-student cohort class scheduled for October 2026.
  • Ship the internal ops tooling behind them, such as the staff scheduler.
  • Guide exhibitions bilingually (KO / EN) and support the multipurpose education rooms.
  • Run the Picabot robot-arm drawing studio, a regular 30-minute hands-on AI session for visiting school groups; led its extended 50-minute class for the 100-student KT × Seoul City AI Future Camp in August 2026, co-hosted with KT, the Seoul Metropolitan Government, and Seoul Dobong Police Station.
