Hyesoo Yang is a Senior Software Engineer at Google with seven years of experience building ML infrastructure, cloud TPU systems, and rapid prototypes across Google Cloud, Firebase, and Google Brain. She specializes in efficient embedding computations and TPU integration—her open-source contributions to TensorFlow include TPU sparse-core support, minibatch processing, COO tensor conversion, and MLIR integration. Comfortable spanning low-level C++ libraries to high-level ML APIs, she combines research-oriented problem solving from an MIT Media Lab MS with pragmatic production delivery at scale. Based in Mountain View, she brings a rare mix of hardware-aware prototyping background (Daydream VR, Nest integration) and cloud ML engineering that accelerates both model performance and developer workflows.
