Klest Dedja

AI Research Engineer @ Predikt.ai, Leuven, Belgium
Netherlands

With several years of experience in Machine Learning modeling, validation, and optimization, I specialized in Explainable AI, using advanced interpretability tools to generate actionable, trustworthy insights. I excel at identifying root causes of model under-performance, as well as defining meaningful prediction tasks from real-world data. I have accumulated experience in collaboration with domain experts and decision-makers, ensuring that my projects are not only technically sound but also practically relevant. My academic path fostered autonomy, deep expertise, and gave me several occasions for mentoring students and professionals, while start-up experience sharpened my communication skills and results-driven mindset. I now seek to apply this blend of expertise in an industry where transparency and reliability are critical to innovation and real-world impact.
