Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHang Yang is a System Integration Engineer with 9 years of hands-on experience building and validating autonomous driving systems, currently based in Palo Alto and working at Zoox. He combines multidisciplinary hardware and software expertise—from HIL and sensors to embedded C/C++ and Python test automation—to drive systems integration, verification, and data-driven validation. Prior roles at Intel and Apple and a Stanford master’s background underpin a strong foundation in mechatronics, control, and vehicle networks (CAN/LIN/Ethernet). An active contributor to high-performance open-source tooling, he has optimized core regex-matching internals in Intel’s hyperscan project, reflecting low-level performance and compression skill beyond typical vehicle systems work. Known for pragmatic problem-solving and clear cross-functional communication, he excels at turning complex integration challenges into reliable, testable systems.
