👋 Hi, I'm Eugene Yan

I build recommendation systems and AI-powered experiences that serve customers at scale. Currently, I'm a Principal Applied Scientist at Amazon. Outside of work, I also...

  • Write, speak, and prototype on ideas in machine learning, RecSys, and LLMs.
  • Teach how to apply ML/LLMs effectively at ApplyingML.com & Applied-LLMs.org.
  • Send a newsletter about data, ML, and what I'm learning to 10,000+ subscribers.
  • In 2026 I'm learning: LLMs for security, memory and retrieval, human-agent collaboration.
  • Fun fact: I don't use the QWERTY keyboard (I use Dvorak instead).
