Summary
Daniel Jiang is a machine learning and software engineer with a decade of experience bridging foundational research and production systems across academia and industry. He has worked on ML and statistical research at UC Berkeley labs and ICSI, and applied those skills to large-scale problems at Amazon, Google Research, Zoox, and Cruise, focusing on search ranking, long-context LLM memory, real-time OOD detection, and perception for autonomous systems. Comfortable in both research and engineering roles, he brings rigorous theory (provable hypothesis testing, contextual bandits) to practical deployments like extreme classification and multimodal models. Now based in the New York City area and currently a Member of Technical Staff at Anthropologie, he blends deep academic mentorship (Jordan, Dhillon, Morgenstern) with hands-on product impact. An underplayed strength is his pattern of moving between cutting-edge research groups and fast-paced product teams, enabling rapid translation of novel algorithms into scalable systems.
