Siffi Singh

I am an Applied Scientist at Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Los Angeles, USA. I work with Amazon Connect and Amazon Transcribe teams building multilingual conversational and generative AI systems for speech understanding and analytics. Prior to this, I spent several years on the Amazon Alexa team in Camridge, UK working on automated knowledge graph construction from web-scale information.

Beyond industry work, I collaborate with researchers exploring the intersection of fundamental science and artificial intelligence. I work on research projects with Prof. Sergei Gukov at the California Institute of Technology and previously with Prof. Burigede Liu at the University of Cambridge.

I received my Masters of Science from National Chiao Tung University (NCTU) under the supervision of Prof. Hsueh-Ming Hang. I previously earned a Bachelor of Technology with distinction in Computer Science from Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Technical University. Following my undergraduate studies, I worked as a Researcher with Prof. Carrson C. Fung at NCTU, Taiwan and later interned at the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) developing computer vision for autonomous driving vehicles.
