Summary
Fangyi Zhu is a software engineer with 10 years of experience building scalable backend and frontend systems across large tech teams, currently contributing to the Google Pixel EngProd organization in the San Francisco Bay Area. She has deep AWS and automation expertise from roles at Amazon, AWS, and Point Inside, where she designed CI/CD pipelines, self-healing MongoDB deployments, and cost-saving Lambda tooling. Fangyi blends data-heavy systems experience (Hadoop, EMR, EFS) with modern full-stack work (React, GraphQL, Java, Python) and a researcher’s mindset—she’s affiliated with Stanford Precision Neurotherapeutics Lab and is open to Research Software Engineering roles. Her background includes shipping high-scale ad-serving infrastructure for IMDb and helping launch core services used across multiple Amazon regions, reflecting an ability to move projects from prototype to production. Less obvious: she pairs hands-on implementation with mentoring and operational bug-hunting, having reported and helped resolve infrastructure-level defects during early EFS/EMR development.
