Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEric Zhu is a software engineer with 11 years of experience who blends robust cloud and security engineering at Microsoft with a deep passion for film studies and criticism. At Microsoft he led large-scale migrations to modern Azure Service Fabric, architected storage authentication and network security upgrades for a billion-dollar marketplace, and authored guides adopted by multiple partner teams. He contributed to the OpenWrt PassWall open-source project as a full-stack developer, enhancing LuCI interfaces and adding IPv6 and routing features, showing comfort across Lua, networking, and performance tuning. A Pomona College double major in Media Studies and Computer Science, he pairs technical delivery—automating infrastructure creation and preventing fraud—with hands-on product work from internships to shipping metadata-driven features. Outside engineering he programs festivals, writes weekly film essays as an accredited critic, and brings curator-level knowledge of foreign and independent cinema to product and UX decisions. That hybrid of systems-level engineering and deep humanities grounding makes him adept at building technically sound products informed by cultural context.
