Summary
Guangtong Bai is a software engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in distributed systems and large-scale machine learning infrastructure, currently building Ads ML infra at Pinterest in San Francisco. He led design and performance work on Twitter’s Ads ML Feature Store, online hydration, and a high-throughput model inference server, cutting feature onboarding time 3x and reducing p99 online latency from 15ms to 1ms. Comfortable across the ML stack, he has shipped offline BigQuery training pipelines, Manhattan-backed online stores, and a minimalist TF/PyTorch inference server that doubled per-core throughput. A top-ranked CS graduate with an MS from UW–Madison, he combines deep systems engineering with practical ML optimization—evidenced by contributions that sped distributed training and saved multimillion-dollar infra costs.
