About Me

I am an Amazon SDE and applied ML researcher focused on reliable AI agents, embodied/human-centered AI, and uncertainty-aware decision systems. I am interested in work that combines production-grade agentic systems, agentic RL, rigorous model evaluation, and trustworthy agents.

My strongest through-line is turning ambiguous model behavior into measurable scientific problems: code-generation agents and tool-use workflows in production settings, spoken instruction following for embodied agents, learning-to-defer systems for human-AI collaboration, and conformal prediction under data and distribution shifts.

I publish research as Yizirui Fang and also go by Easey Fang. Find my work on GitHub, Google Scholar, and LinkedIn.
