Summary
Hongyu Teng is a software engineer in London with 11 years of experience building high-performance media systems, full-stack products, and research-driven algorithms. Currently at Cisco, he designs and optimizes video processing features and AV1 encoder infrastructure using performance-focused C++ (including SIMD) and robust test pipelines. His background spans industry and research — an internship at Google building a Wear OS prototype, a co-founder/CTO role launching a social app with real users, and a published IEEE paper on algorithm selection. Comfortable across stacks from backend services and DevOps to machine learning and graphics, he brings both low-level optimization chops and product-minded delivery. Colleagues describe him as pragmatic and metrics-driven, with a rare blend of codec engineering and end-to-end product experience.
