AI-native product & workflows
Strong business abstraction paired with vibe-coding: I write detailed prompts as AI PRDs and ship full-stack apps and automation solo, using compilers like Claude Code / Antigravity.
Open to roles · remote / overseas
I turn repetitive work into AI tools that scale.
Zhongyi Ren · AI Creative & Product Lead
A non-technical creative & product lead. I first standardize workflows with SOPs, then close the technical gap with vibe coding — hard-coding design specs and business rules straight into software that kills repetitive communication and scales a team's output. Equal parts taste and business sense.
- 2 internal AI tools · solo full-stack
- ≈1 FTE of capacity freed monthly by tooling
- 1000+ commercial templates shipped in month one
- 0→110K follower growth in 2 months (managed account)
Strengths
Core strengths
Data-driven & team leadership
Advanced stats (incl. structural equation modeling) and cross-functional, cross-border project management. I empower non-technical teams with rigorous SOPs and internal AI tools to lift output and ROI.
Taste meets business
A dual background in visual media and commercial marketing; fluent in AE and FCP. I translate high-end design and motion logic into code and AI rules to mass-produce premium content at low cost.
International outlook
IELTS 6.5 (speaking 7.0) and a Distinction master's from the University of Nottingham; English as a core working language, with a close read on overseas AI circles and global-market trends.

QQAI (Canada) / based in Hangzhou
AI Product Manager- Core product design: shaped key features of the company's flagship AI video-generation app. I proposed and shipped a “macro-context” parameter that fixed the disconnect between text and visual background, sharply improving text-image consistency and delivery quality.
- Built the “Form to Video” product logic from scratch, with standardized SOPs and self-adapting prompt templates. Led an outsourced team to ship 1000+ high-quality commercial templates (AE + AI prompts) in the first month.
- Team leadership: ran an 8-person remote student team, shipping 120+ quality videos/month on a tight budget via “AI tooling + minimal SOPs.” For managed accounts, grew one finance account 0→110K followers in two months, with a top video at 7M+ plays.
- Solo-built 2 internal AI productivity tools (AI Copywriter / Performance Calc), encoding design specs and business rules into software to eliminate repetitive back-and-forth — the cover-generation module was ported back into the main commercial product. Also led OpenClaw agent rollout and copy-workflow automation.

Overseas Creative Designer- Led end-to-end ad creative for North America, LATAM and SEA. Built a data-driven iteration loop on live performance (CTR / CVR / retention), hitting a department-record day-1 ROI of 1.25 on a $60k+ monthly budget.
- Iterated A/B variants fast in After Effects, Premiere Pro and Photoshop, codifying editing/design SOPs and project templates — 1800+ cross-channel assets (videos, banners, landing pages) in six months, doubling creative throughput.
- Partnered with growth, product and engineering to deliver 10+ actionable optimizations across landing pages, app-store presence and the in-app new-user journey — lowering CPA and lifting paid conversion.
- Single-handedly handled post-production (editing, color, VFX, scoring) for overseas short dramas; passed probation six weeks early.
