Julian Schoen, Member of Technical Staff at Echelon AI
We're building AI agents that transform how enterprises operate at scale.
I'm currently building HyperGen, the fastest image and video generation library—a hybrid between vLLM and Unsloth pushing the boundaries of generative AI performance.
Previously:
- Senior Software Engineer at Chai Research, serving 1.8M+ daily users
- Built algorithmic trading systems handling $10M+ daily volume
- Created Aura Voice, an AI assistant with 1.2k+ GitHub stars
- Architected high-performance ML infrastructure at scale
I believe:
- Work with relentless intensity toward meaningful outcomes
- Radical honesty about weaknesses accelerates growth
- Consistent 1% improvements compound into breakthrough results
- Principled decision-making trumps short-term convenience
- Speed of iteration beats perfection of planning
Most importantly—enjoy the ride.
