πŸ‘‹ Hi, I'm Bernardino Lintang

Final Year Data Science & Analytics student at NUS (graduating June 2027), building explainable AI systems, LLM-powered agents, and production-grade ML applications.

Currently interning at HTX (Home Team Science and Technology), exploring vector databases and AI system design in a security-focused environment.

I focus on:

  • Agentic AI workflows and multi-agent orchestration
  • Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems
  • Hybrid ML + LLM architectures
  • Explainable company intelligence systems

πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» About Me

  • 🌱 Pursuing a B.Sc. (Hons) in Data Science & Analytics at NUS
  • πŸ’‘ Bridging AI/ML engineering with product thinking β€” I like challenging engineering decisions, not just executing them
  • πŸš€ 4 internships across fintech, fraud detection, and AI entrepreneurship: CPF Board, Superbank, Crayon Data, HTX
  • πŸ† 1st Place, NUS Datathon 2026 (IntelliCompany AI)
  • πŸ† Finalist, NUS SDS Hackathon 2025 (Top 3/40)
  • πŸ† Finalist, NUS SDS Datathon 2025 (Top 5/75)

🌱 Currently Building

  • Careerlingo β€” Duolingo-style AI career coach (LinkedIn Career Trailblazer Hackathon), building the Scout agent
  • Vector database evaluation with Milvus
  • AI system design for security/Trust & Safety contexts (HTX internship)
  • Bernard Builds β€” freelance web design studio, increasingly positioned around AI-powered websites

πŸ’Ό Experience

  • Data Science Intern @ HTX (May – Aug 2026) β†’ Working on AI system design and vector database infrastructure in a security/Trust & Safety context.

  • AI Entrepreneur Intern @ Crayon Data (Dec 2025 – Jan 2026) β†’ Built LLM-powered agentic workflows transforming unstructured merchant offers into schema-compliant datasets.

  • Operations (Data Science) Intern @ Superbank (May – Aug 2025) β†’ Engineered 200+ fraud detection features in Python/SQL, optimised queries on 50M+ records (~40% faster), built real-time monitoring pipelines in Snowflake.

  • Publicity Head @ Alumni Relations Committee, NUS Science Club (2025–Present) β†’ Leading publicity and design for alumni-facing events.


πŸš€ Flagship Project: IntelliCompany AI (1st Place β€” NUS Datathon 2026)

Explainable AI-powered company intelligence platform combining classical ML clustering with grounded LLM reasoning.

Architecture:

  • K-Prototypes clustering on 8,559 companies, 20+ engineered features
  • Structured retrieval (15 records/query) feeding a guardrail-constrained Llama 3.3 70B (Groq, temp 0.1)
  • Strict dataset-only grounding β€” zero hallucination policy
  • Full-stack: React + FastAPI, Dockerised

Why it matters: demonstrates hybrid ML+LLM design, explainability-first engineering, and end-to-end shipping.


🧠 My AI Systems Approach

  1. Grounding over hallucination
  2. Classical ML + LLM hybrid architectures
  3. Explainability before automation
  4. Low-temperature deterministic outputs for business contexts
  5. Clear guardrails and retrieval constraints
  6. Containerised, deployment-ready systems

Safe Β· Interpretable Β· Scalable Β· Cost-aware
