Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Wen is a Senior Software Development Engineer at Amazon working on Alexa, with seven years of experience bridging applied machine learning, NLP, and systems engineering to build customer-facing products at scale. He has driven end-to-end solutions from research and prototype through productionization and A/B testing, including large-scale Spark pipelines on AWS Glue/EMR to power search and Q&A experiences. Prior work at Qualcomm combined AR/VR tracking, computer vision, and on-device ML optimization, giving him a strong systems-to-models perspective. Daniel thrives in cross-functional roles, preferring to engage across product conception, science/engineering scoping, and deployment to maximize global outcomes. Based in the Bay Area with an MS in Machine Learning from UC San Diego and a BS in Electrical Engineering from UCLA, he brings both academic rigor and pragmatic engineering tools to complex, real-world problems. An understated strength is his habit of building internal tooling and analytics early in projects to accelerate debugging and impact measurement.
