Encord's Solutions team plays a crucial role in the company's commercial and technical progress, uncovering new use cases for its product, building a strong feedback loop between technical and commercial teams, and empowering leading AI teams to build cutting-edge applications. Jen Ding, an ML Solutions Engineer at Encord, joins from a research institute where she worked on building real-world applications of AI research and co-founded a public data festival. In her current role, Jen focuses on enabling the frontier of AI applications, working with customers in various industries such as robotics and vertical farming to create custom solutions with Encord's suite of data products. A misconception about Encord's product space is that data work is not as important or requires less attention than training models, which is not true, as data quality remains a crucial factor in model performance. Jen hopes that her side initiative, "AI Data Chats", will create more airtime for key data topics and promote a better understanding of the importance of data in AI applications. The Encord culture is described as dynamic, dedicated, and customer-driven, with Naomi Nagata from The Expanse being an ideal candidate to join the Solutions team due to her readiness for any challenge and creative solution implementation skills. Ultimately, Jen hopes that the company's values will remain unchanged by 2030, still prioritizing innovation and collaboration.
