Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCyson Liao is an experienced software engineer and engineering lead with 11 years building production systems across startups and tech giants, currently pursuing an MEng at UC Berkeley while leading engineering at Sei Labs and building at a stealth startup. He has delivered core backend and infrastructure work—from oracle price feeding and upgrade handlers on the Sei-chain blockchain to vehicle dispatch and central control systems for autonomous vehicles at Uber—demonstrating strong systems, DevOps, and distributed-systems chops. His background includes consumer-scale backend services at Amazon Lab126/Alexa, performance tuning with AWS primitives, and hands-on C++ robotics research from USC, giving him a rare blend of low-level control and cloud-native service design. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic builder who moves between code, infrastructure, and product needs, often refactoring critical pipelines rather than shipping superficial features. He’s fluent in Go, C++, and backend orchestration, and has a track record of implementing robust integrations with external data feeds and task-dispatch infrastructures. Based in Los Angeles, he combines entrepreneurial experience (co-founding an education startup) with deep technical leadership at the intersection of blockchain, AV systems, and cloud services.
