Jill Xu is an experienced software engineer with eight years building decentralized applications, Web3 fintech, and production-grade AI systems across startups and big tech. She has shipped features at scale from Amazon’s recommender carousel to Meta’s commerce and NFT initiatives, and most recently focused on autonomous AI agents and safety-conscious work at Anthropic. Her background blends a computer science MS with dual BA studies in philosophy and political science, informing a pragmatic yet thoughtful approach to product and systems trade-offs. Jill moves between low-level reliability work and higher-level protocol design, comfortable in both research-adjacent and shipping-driven environments. Based in Seattle, she’s quietly bridged DeFi and AI domains—an engineer who pairs blockchain experience with emergent agent automation.
