Alumni – Lingtong Liu
What did you learn while working with DT Services and Consulting?
I strengthened my skill across three areas: technical-TRL/CRL framing, eligible-cost logic, project management; collaboration-feedback loops, async documentation, one-page communication; mindset-80/20 scoping, bias to action, and small, testable steps. These practices standardize and de-risk AI projects for faster, cheaper, more reliable overall delivery.
How did you feel being part of our team?
Supported and trusted. The team culture (stand-ups/Monday Coffee, fast reviews) gave me autonomy with clear guardrails. Communication among colleagues was prompt and effective. Advisor was accessible, feedback was specific, and wins were shared-great environment for learning and shipping.
In what way will this experience help you in the future?
In fast-moving AI, I witnessed hypothesis-to-product, contributed to AI RaaS, linked advances to business models and funding, sharpened product strategy and tool use, collaborated cross-functionally, and joined a mission-driven team.
It highlighted my strengths in rapidly structuring complex problems and communicating clearly under time pressure. I’m driven to connect policy, funding, and operations to drive cost reduction and efficiency; going forward, I’ll deepen my skills in cost accounting, product strategy, and market analysis to deliver measurable impact.
