Grace Guan is a Machine Learning Engineer and final-year PhD candidate in Management Science and Engineering at Stanford with a decade of experience building production ML systems and research tools. She has interned at DeepMind and Google, contributed backend testing infrastructure for the Simulated Hospital project that sped releases for DeepMind’s Streams app, and worked on matching and allocation problems with real-world impact (including organ allocation with Nobel laureate Al Roth). Her industry roles span data and ML engineering at Two Sigma, Lyft, and Stripe, where she blends algorithmic rigor with scalable software practices. Grace’s work bridges academic research and production: she publishes and ships systems, turning theoretical insights into reliable products. Based in Palo Alto, she combines elite academic training with hands-on engineering across back-end APIs, recommendation/NLP, and optimization.
