Bui Nguyen Gia Huy · Software Solution Engineer

I build AI systems that have to survive outside the notebook.

From ambiguous customer requirements to architecture, backend integration, edge inference, deployment, and field debugging.

About Me

I’m a Software Solution Engineer at HPT Vietnam Corporation in Ho Chi Minh City, focused on applied AI and systems engineering. I help turn operational problems into deployable solutions across computer vision, AI assistants, backend services, video systems, Linux, and industrial integrations. My work spans requirements, architecture, implementation, deployment, debugging, and handover.

Applied AI

Build retrieval and vision systems around concrete operational problems.

  • Computer Vision
  • RAG / Retrieval Systems
  • Multimodal RAG
  • AI Agents

AI Systems & Edge

Move models into CPU, edge, and video pipelines, then investigate their field behavior.

  • OpenVINO / ONNX
  • CPU-only Inference
  • RTSP / Video Pipelines
  • Linux Deployment

Backend & Integration

Connect AI outputs to APIs, databases, products, and third-party systems.

  • FastAPI
  • Kotlin / Spring Boot
  • PostgreSQL / Redis
  • APIs / Plugins / VMS

Infrastructure & Deployment

Deploy and debug across Linux, containers, networking, and video streams.

  • Linux
  • Docker
  • Networking
  • Nginx / CI/CD

Projects

01

Technical Support AI Assistant

An internal demo for retrieving technical information across heterogeneous documents.

Problem

Technical information is distributed across different documents and needs fast, grounded retrieval.

My role

Owned delivery end to end across document ingestion, hybrid and multimodal retrieval, reranking, agentic retrieval, backend services, and frontend integration.

Outcome / learning

Fast mode achieved 5 seconds average latency in the internal demo.

Technologies

  • Python
  • FastAPI
  • Hybrid RAG
  • Multimodal RAG
  • AI Agents

Computer Vision Application at an Ice Cream Manufacturing Plant

Detected logos only a few dozen pixels wide on cartons using the customer’s existing CCTV system.

Problem

Recognize small carton logos through existing CCTV in a production environment.

My role

Consulted on nearly 50 computer-vision use cases across factory sites and delivered this customer PoC with a two-person team, from requirements and data collection through model training, web app integration, Linux deployment, and on-site iteration.

Outcome / learning

With two cameras, a CPU-only server using a 12th-gen Intel Core i5 sustained 15 FPS. Under field conditions, accuracy was at least 83% and response time was under 150 ms, but the PoC did not meet its requirement of at least 95% accuracy.

Constraints

  • Logos only a few dozen pixels wide
  • Customer’s existing CCTV system
  • Two cameras
  • CPU-only server using a 12th-gen Intel Core i5
  • Field issues involved camera quality, compression, perspective, and environmental conditions
  • Bitrate capped at 1024 Kbps, which was low and often caused blurring
  • Two Full HD cameras running simultaneously at a minimum of over 5 FPS

Technologies

  • RF-DETR
  • YOLO
  • OpenVINO
  • OpenCV
  • Docker
  • Debian
03

HPT SmartTrak

Production work on backend APIs and AI integrations for HPT SmartTrak.

Problem

Connect face-recognition camera events with physical access-control workflows.

My role

Implemented backend APIs and fine-tuned custom object-detection models for additional customer use cases as part of a three-person team.

Outcome / learning

Contributed backend and model work to the production product.

Technologies

  • Kotlin / Spring Boot
  • Python
  • Face Recognition
  • Object Detection
  • PostgreSQL
  • Redis

Experience

Software Solution Engineer

HPT Vietnam Corporation

2024–Present
  • Translate ambiguous customer needs through discovery, on-site surveys, architecture, sizing, proposals, demos, and proofs of concept.
  • Own the technical relationship with AIWINOPS as the sole engineering interface; communicate in English, reproduce incidents, coordinate fixes, propose features, and co-develop solution and case-study materials.
  • Design backend services, plugins, and extensions that connect AI products to third-party Video Management Systems and customer environments.
  • Maintain deployment architecture, sizing guidance, technical documentation, and product knowledge.
  • Resolve post-sales issues across Linux, networking, RTSP/video pipelines, backend integrations, and deployed AI systems.
  • Guide interns and fresh graduates through implementation and debugging.
