Summary
Chuan L is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable backend and real-time systems across companies like TikTok, Twitter, StubHub, and Amobee. He has driven infrastructure for live features—designing data collection, ML model serving and experimentation platforms for Twitter Spaces—and owned high-throughput services such as participant status and data download pipelines. His background spans ads real-time bidding, personalized targeting, GDPR-aware tracking, and earlier ASIC design at Marvell, giving him a rare mix of low-level hardware insight and large-scale distributed systems expertise. Based in Beijing with an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from UCLA, he combines rigorous engineering discipline with a product-facing focus on engagement and performance. Known for a hungry, curious mindset ("stay foolish, stay hungry"), he often surfaces non-obvious optimizations that improve both latency and end-user engagement.
