What I Do

Crafting AI as software,
not as a parlor trick.

Four overlapping practices I bring to every engagement — from the first whiteboard sketch to the dashboard you check at 2am. Each one ships with evals, observability, and a runbook.

Evals includedCost-awareProduction-grade

About Me

Nguyễn Hải Lâm — AI Engineer at Viettel Cyber Security, based in Hanoi. Working across Cybersecurity (SOC / Threat Hunting), Legal AI and Software Testing. IEEE Access 2025 co-first author and National AI Olympiad 2025 winner.

3+ years across 5 organizations shipping agentic platforms, multi-tenant RAG, and data infrastructure — from research to product to production. Now transitioning toward Technical PM to own scope, delivery and outcomes across cross-functional teams.

How I Work

A calm, repeatable process.

Same loop, every project. It bends with the problem but never breaks the discipline.

01
Discover

Understand the user, the data, and the unfair edge AI should create.

02
Design

Sketch the system — prompts, retrieval, evals, latency budget and failure modes.

03
Build

Ship a thin vertical slice fast, then harden with tests, logs and dashboards.

04
Iterate

Measure with real users, kill what doesn't work, double down on what does.

Proficiency

Where I'm sharpest.

Engineering Philosophy

  • Treat AI as software engineering, not magic.
  • Build for real users in production, not for demos.
  • Prefer simple systems that scale over complex hype.
  • Optimize for reliability, observability, and impact.
  • Bridge engineering and product — ship outcomes, not features.
Kind Words

What collaborators say.

"Hải Lâm thinks about AI the way good engineers think about distributed systems — evals, latency, observability, cost. Calm execution, every time."
SE
Senior Engineering Lead
Viettel Cyber Security
"He owned our multi-agent platform end-to-end. LangGraph, FastMCP, multi-tenant — production-grade from day one."
PD
Product Director
AIZ
"Rare combination: research depth, product taste, and the discipline to ship. Our QA agent shipped in weeks, not quarters."

Frequently asked

What kind of engagements do you take on?

Agentic AI platforms, security/legal AI systems, software-testing agents, and the data infrastructure behind them. Greenfield builds or rescuing prototypes that need to ship.

Why the move from AI Engineer to Technical PM?

I've owned systems end-to-end across 5 organizations. Moving into Technical PM lets me combine that engineering depth with delivery, stakeholder alignment, and outcome ownership.

What's your default stack?

LangGraph + FastMCP + Dify for agents, Qdrant for retrieval, vLLM for serving, FastAPI on the backend, Kafka / Spark / DuckDB on data, Langfuse for observability.

Can clients trust you with production AI?

Yes — production systems at Viettel Cyber Security and AIZ, 1M+ records processed, IEEE Access 2025 co-first author, and a National AI Olympiad 2025 win.
