About

My name is Basel Hindi. I am a Senior Software Engineer in AI/ML at Nike, where I work on agentic and generative AI systems used across the enterprise, and contribute to the architecture of production AI platforms.

Areas of Interest

• Agentic AI systems
• LLM evaluation and guardrails
• Multimodal AI
• Scalable AI infrastructure

Background

Before working on generative AI, I developed autonomy and perception software for autonomous vehicles, including sensor fusion and LiDAR-based decision systems.

I hold a Master of Science in Computer Science from Columbia University, where I was an NSF DREAM Research Fellow conducting research in computer vision and multimodal accessibility systems for blind/ low-vision people. Specifically, I worked on human-computer interaction with Professor Brian A. Smith in the Computer-Enabled Abilities Laboratory (CEAL).

Research

My publications are available on my Google Scholar profile.

I also participated in the NSF DREAM program and wrote about the research experience on my DREAM program blog.
