Top SchoolChao Shi is a seasoned software engineer with 16 years’ experience designing and implementing large-scale distributed storage systems, currently building foundational storage used across Alibaba Cloud products like ODPS and ECS.

His career spans major cloud and web platforms including Alibaba, Google, Weibo and Microsoft, with hands-on work from task schedulers and VM storage to HBase performance and availability. Comfortable both in research-adjacent roles and high-throughput production engineering, he combines algorithmic rigor with pragmatic engineering for reliability and I/O efficiency.
