Suujay Dhhoka, AI, ML & Robotics Engineer

About me

Engineering
intelligence into
the real world

I'm a Master's graduate in ECE from Rutgers University (GPA 3.50), specializing in AI/ML, Robotics, and Cloud-Native systems. My work spans the full stack, from perception pipelines and robotic control, to deployed ML microservices on AWS and Azure.

At Kaizen Studio, I built ML-powered inference pipelines on SageMaker cutting latency by 40%. As a Teaching Assistant at Rutgers, I mentored 550+ students across Machine Vision, Cloud Computing, and Digital Signal Processing.

I'm fluent in English, Hindi, and German, with experience working across research labs, cloud companies, and creative-tech studios. Currently based in New Brunswick, NJ and open to full-time roles in AI/ML engineering and robotics.
