Bolun Wang is an engineering manager at ByteDance who leads teams protecting TikTok’s Community Health, bringing a decade of experience at the intersection of security, systems, and machine learning. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from UC Santa Barbara, where his research exposed vulnerabilities in deep learning and devised defenses to secure DL systems—work that informs his pragmatic approach to risk and abuse detection in production. Before management he was an applied researcher and engineer at Facebook focused on detecting unauthorized scraping, and he has internship experience at Microsoft Research Asia analyzing mobile user behavior. Comfortable moving between research and production, he combines academic rigor with product-minded delivery to harden large-scale platforms against novel adversarial threats.
