Senior🎓
Top SchoolJustin Hu is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with 11 years of experience building large-scale, distributed systems across e-commerce, finance, and research domains. At Amazon he led teams that designed TB-scale Spark pipelines and low-latency online inference services (p99 ~40ms) serving thousands TPS, and earlier expanded Java-based distributed taxonomy services to manage tens of billions of items. His background includes multi-threaded C++ trading components, event-driven Python systems, and end-to-end testing and CI at enterprise scale, reflecting strong breadth across languages and platforms. He holds an MEng from Cornell and a BCS from Waterloo, and has applied operations research techniques in research work optimizing UAV schedulers. Known for combining hands-on implementation with people leadership, he seeks roles focused on distributed systems and data-intensive architectures. An understated strength is his repeated delivery of production-grade pipelines that process hundreds of TBs monthly while keeping tight latency and lifecycle guarantees.
