Eric Tang is an analyst and Stanford-educated computer scientist with eight years of experience applying machine learning, statistical modeling, and software engineering to problems in auctions, education, and public policy. At Auctionomics he combines theoretical analysis and numerical simulation to evaluate efficiency tradeoffs in high-stakes markets, building on prior research roles at SAIL and Stanford IEPR where he developed PyTorch models and implemented empirical studies of media bias. His internships at AWS and Quill demonstrate production-minded engineering—shipping failure-classification tooling for datacenter launches and NLP-driven feedback systems for student writing. Comfortable across Python, R, Stata, and full-stack web frameworks, he brings a research-first mindset to practical deployments and a recurring interest in projects that improve education and government outcomes. An atypical blend of field experience (refugee support, congressional internship) and rigorous CS/math training informs his pragmatic, policy-aware approach to technical problems.
