FORWARD DEPLOYED ENGINEER

I’m Yui (Wayne) Tien. I turn company AI capabilities into usable, deliverable production systems.

I’m a Forward Deployed Engineer at MorphusAI. I work with frontline users to define needs, workflows, and production acceptance—then configure the existing platform into a deployment that works.

about

Connecting AI capabilities to real-world operations.

On top of the existing platform, I adapt SHIKI, memory, models, APIs, tools, and content; walk the real user flow; resolve deployment issues; and leave behind a transferable operating path—moving AI from “the demo works” to customer-ready, maintainable production.

  • Evidence-based verification: click through the real flow or show test logs, API responses, and responsive breakpoints.
  • Separate model limits from deployment mistakes before calling something impossible.
  • Set explicit guardrails, then document decisions so the work stays autonomous and transferable.
  • frontline discovery
  • production acceptance
  • persona & workflow tuning
  • memory / model / api configuration
  • runtime diagnostics
  • deployment & handoff

experience

What I have actually been doing, in order.

  1. 2026 — Present

    Forward Deployed Engineer

    MorphusAI · 源神科技

    Deploying the SHIKI Expert Core and the argsmem governed-memory layer into the agent runtimes teams already run, plus runtime diagnostics and agent operating contracts.

  2. 2025 — 2026

    Digital Persona Technical Director & Virtual Character Systems Engineer

    MorphusAI · 源神科技

    Led AI persona and virtual character systems, standardized agent workflows into repeatable SOPs, and owned demo-to-delivery operations from POC through launch.

  3. 2024 — 2025

    UI/UX & AI-UX Designer

    MorphusAI · 源神科技

    Designed product interfaces and human-AI interaction: conversational UI, how AI responses are presented, and how much trust and control users feel. Built an AI-assisted flow for turning raw ideas into MVPs, POCs, and demos.

    Design work from this period

  4. 2021 — 2025

    B.S., Information & Finance Management

    National Taipei University of Technology

    Graduated September 2025.

Updated

What I am on right now.

Working on

  • Putting expert judgment and governed memory into real customer workflows at MorphusAI.
  • OpenClaw — a personal agent operating system I run my own work through: Discord-native, memory-persistent, rule-governed.
  • This site, rebuilt in the open as a case study in working with agents.

Open to

  • AI agent infrastructure and runtime ops
  • Persona and character systems
  • Agent memory and governance
  • Small, high-execution product teams

Read how I work
Who is Yui (Wayne) Tien?
A Taipei-based Forward Deployed Engineer at MorphusAI. He turns AI persona systems and agent workflows into customer-ready deployments.
What does he work on?
AI persona and character systems, agent memory and context preservation, runtime diagnostics, and demo-to-delivery workflows that take ideas from POC to MVP to launch.
How does he work with AI agents?
Through five enforced rules: operating contracts before autonomy, evidence-based verification, diagnosis before rebuild, persistent context over clever prompting, and handoff as part of the deliverable. Each one exists because something broke without it.
What does he build at MorphusAI?
He deploys the SHIKI Expert Core and the argsmem governed-memory layer into the agent runtimes teams already run, along with runtime diagnostics and agent operating contracts. From 2025 to 2026 he led AI persona and virtual character systems there as Digital Persona Technical Director, after joining in 2024 as a UI/UX & AI-UX Designer.
Where is he based?
Taipei, Taiwan. He works in English and Mandarin Chinese.
How can you reach him?
