Summary
Hang Yuan is a Technical Staff engineer specializing in architecture with eight years of experience building high-scale Java backend microservices for large enterprises like Illumio and Walmart Global Tech. He combines deep backend expertise (Java, Spring Boot/Cloud, Kafka, Hibernate) with cloud-native deployment and observability practices across AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes, and has driven measurable improvements—such as 40% faster data transfer and 95% persistence-time reductions—through performance tuning and migration efforts. A Columbia MS graduate and former researcher on eSIM for IoT, he blends rigorous academic research with practical product delivery, having led cross-team data consolidation, event-driven designs, and privacy-compliant APIs. He’s also led engineering teams and set testing standards to raise code quality and coverage, pairing hands-on development with mentoring and product-focused decision making. Notably, his work on unifying List-as-a-Service across North America showcased both systems-level architecture and operational rigor in large-scale e-commerce environments.
