My journey started at NYU ITP, where I studied programming alongside interaction design. It gave me a lasting comfort with technical complexity, and shaped what I've been drawn to throughout my career: turning complex systems into products people can actually use. At Kyligence, that complexity was technical: making an enterprise analytics engine accessible to business users. At Deel, it was organizational: designing platform-level systems that served as shared infrastructure across product lines. Both required thinking deeply about backend architecture to find the right design abstractions. Most recently at Tetherflow, the complexity became probabilistic. By shipping a conversational AI agent from 0 to 1, I learned firsthand that outcomes are not deterministic, and that there is often a significant gap between what works in a demo and what works reliably in production. The experience taught me the importance of evaluation, human-in-the-loop systems, and continuous monitoring in making AI useful in the real world. The systems change, but the challenge stays the same: understand complexity deeply enough to make it invisible to the people using it. https://luqianchen.space/Tethervflow_Cover Wed, 17 Jun 2026 05:22:21 +0000 Luqian Chen Portfolio https://luqianchen.space/Tethervflow_Cover Tetherflow From functional to reliable: iterating an AI agent through real-world failure into a production-ready system <img width="2024" height="1024" width_o="2024" height_o="1024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a817ab754efe90571f62b09b6d4dc4b33d6a9730e88596ae22def9c2b7292e40/Comment.gif" data-mid="249524770" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a817ab754efe90571f62b09b6d4dc4b33d6a9730e88596ae22def9c2b7292e40/Comment.gif" /> https://luqianchen.space/Deel_Cover Mon, 20 Oct 2025 18:57:58 +0000 Luqian Chen Portfolio https://luqianchen.space/Deel_Cover <img width="2880" height="1620" width_o="2880" height_o="1620" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5496ebd668eb275cbbbe7eee2eff7a342cf5332fbf519f7b0a8bfaadafc9fea4/Deel_R-P.png" data-mid="239609570" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5496ebd668eb275cbbbe7eee2eff7a342cf5332fbf519f7b0a8bfaadafc9fea4/Deel_R-P.png" /> <img width="2880" height="1620" width_o="2880" height_o="1620" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/61480ae632bccbe43b34715ed0126c33747cd3852ecbc26b67b094f5d2a6f615/Deel_R-P-02.png" data-mid="239609571" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/61480ae632bccbe43b34715ed0126c33747cd3852ecbc26b67b094f5d2a6f615/Deel_R-P-02.png" /> <img width="2880" height="1620" width_o="2880" height_o="1620" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/a12eedfa798d77ab62cb5a5f6e79dee7e9d2c5958c7e27089cb211f4dd2dc5f7/Org-settings.png" data-mid="239609569" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/a12eedfa798d77ab62cb5a5f6e79dee7e9d2c5958c7e27089cb211f4dd2dc5f7/Org-settings.png" /> Deel Make complexity understandable: redesigning the Roles &amp;
