About me

Hi there! I’m Szu-Yu (Eva) Mo (莫絲羽), a roboticist-turned-builder from Taiwan. These days I’m CTO / Founding Engineer at Athleo.ai, an AI-powered sports video storytelling platform that turns raw footage into highlights worth sharing. On the side, I’m building TransFOMO, a social app that helps even the most introverted friends feel welcome enough to show up. I’m always up for a good conversation — and stay open to interesting robotics / computer vision opportunities, so please don’t be shy to reach out!

Before jumping into the startup world, I spent nearly five years at NVIDIA as a computer vision engineer in the autonomous driving department, working on real-time mapping and 4D auto-labeling pipelines for self-driving cars. I hold a Master of Science in Robotics System Development (MRSD) from Carnegie Mellon University (2021) and a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from National Taiwan University (NTUEE, 2019).

My love for robotics and computer vision started early. During my undergrad research at NTU’s Intelligent Robot Lab with Prof. Li-Chen Fu, I dove into semantic visual SLAM with ROS and Python. At CMU, I led parts of AutoValet, a 1.5-year capstone with three teammates where we built an autonomous parking system for indoor garages — you can watch our final demo here. Along the way, I interned at Coretronic (monocular visual SLAM), PicCollage (semantic segmentation for the app’s person cut-out feature), and NVIDIA.

When I’m not coding, I love telling stories. I write on Medium — both an English account and a Mandarin publication about studying abroad, life as a software engineer, and the occasional nerdy project (Google Translate does a decent job on the Mandarin ones!). I’m also a budding video creator under the handle momo_collection_ — on Instagram I share reflective vlogs about leaving NVIDIA, building a life I actually want, and easing into startup life, while my YouTube channel is where I unwind with laid-back camping and travel adventures. Same name, two very different vibes! I’d genuinely love to hear from you if any of it resonates.

Nice to meet you! Together, let’s build a better world.
