Jingyi Hu is a Senior Project Manager based in California with seven years of experience bridging data-driven analysis, product delivery, and open-source engineering. At Acumen she leads cross-functional teams—managing 10 analysts and coordinating an outreach of ~50—to deliver Medicare claims analyses for DOJ, FBI, and CMS while overseeing interactive data visualizations and a centralized visualization platform. Technically fluent in backend and DevOps work, she is an emeritus maintainer and contributor to high-profile projects such as etcd and Kubernetes, where she improved snapshot integrity, concurrent reads, and operational monitoring for production-grade clusters. This blend of policy-focused program leadership and hands-on distributed-systems contributions gives her a rare ability to translate complex technical constraints into auditable, client-ready solutions. She holds an MPA from NYU Wagner and brings analytical rigor and product sensibility to both public-sector engagements and open-source infrastructure.
