Frank Chen is a Principal Software Engineer with 10 years of experience designing and operating high-scale, secure systems for both startups and hyperscale cloud providers. He has repeatedly built mission-critical infrastructure from the ground up—leading platform architecture at Uplimit to support hundreds of thousands of users and driving Cloud TPU architecture and performance work at Google to broaden ML framework support. At Coursera he owned core high-availability services that processed thousands of requests per second during hypergrowth, and he codifies SRE and security practices into operational lifecycles. Frank blends deep systems engineering with applied machine learning interest, having worked across distributed batch systems, hardware-accelerated ML stacks, and security vulnerability lifecycles. Based in San Jose, he pairs technical leadership and mentorship with a product-minded approach to revenue-critical systems and enterprise integrations. A lesser-known thread in his background is early large-scale education platform work at Stanford that scaled to hundreds of thousands of learners and informed his focus on reliable, data-driven systems.
