Don Mai is a software engineer with 12 years of experience building research-driven and production systems across the Bay Area, currently contributing to core products at Google. He blends strong academic training (dual M.S. degrees from Stanford in Computer Science and Statistics and a B.A. in CS from UC Berkeley) with practical expertise in web applications, machine learning, and large-scale data pipelines. His background spans building SPA tooling with TypeScript/React, maintaining large annotated datasets for 3D research, and applying ML/statistics to global health problems like HIV risk factor discovery. Comfortable in both research and product environments, he has a track record of shipping end-to-end systems—from Mechanical Turk pipelines to production services—and mentoring students as a long-running course assistant at Stanford. Notably, he pairs deep quantitative instincts with hands-on engineering, making him adept at turning complex research questions into reliable, usable software.
