Jinyu Zhao is an Applied Researcher II at eBay with nine years of experience building ML-driven systems and production research solutions. With an MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering from UC San Diego and a dual-background in Honors Mathematics and Data Science from NYU Shanghai, Jinyu blends theoretical rigor with practical engineering. At eBay they progressed rapidly from software engineering into applied research roles, focusing on scalable ML applications and knowledge reasoning. Prior work includes healthcare-focused ML at UCSD (notably contributing to the COVID-CT-Dataset) and life-sciences graph ML during an AWS applied scientist internship. Jinyu has a strong track record in deep learning for structured data—song phrase segmentation, brain tumor segmentation, and molecular graph optimization—that bridges academic publications and production code. Based in California, they bring both research depth and hands-on implementation experience to cross-functional product teams.
