Meet the founder.

Rui Su — Founder & Director

AI Engineer, AI Consultant, and PhD candidate at Maynooth University (Ireland) specialising in ensemble prediction, statistical modelling, and low-latency algorithm design. Bilingual in English and Mandarin Chinese, based between Singapore and Dublin.

Before founding Intonation Labs, Rui built Instant Harmonies — a production-deployed system for real-time music analysis — published 3 peer-reviewed papers on real-time audio ML, and earned 18+ professional certifications across data science, AI engineering, cloud architecture, and generative AI from IBM, AWS, Google Cloud, and leading universities.

Intonation Labs sits at a rare intersection: deep academic research, production engineering experience, and hands-on GenAI expertise. We don't just advise — we build.
