Summary
Junyan Liu is a software engineer with 11 years of experience, currently based in Sunnyvale and working at Google after three years building autonomous systems at Nuro. He holds an MS in Computer Science from UC San Diego and a BE in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Harbin Institute of Technology, combining strong academic foundations with hands-on embedded and perception work. His background spans embedded firmware, Bluetooth-enabled medical devices, edge image processing on Raspberry Pi, and CNN implementations with PyTorch and OpenCV that achieved latency and accuracy gains. At Nuro he focused on production robotics software, and at Google he continues to apply scalable engineering practices to complex systems. Junyan is comfortable across C++, Python, Qt/QML, Android, and ML stacks, and brings a practical blend of low-level optimization and user-facing interface integration. Colleagues would note his knack for shaving milliseconds off pipelines while keeping interfaces intuitive for operators.
