Senior🎓
Top SchoolLance Tan is a systems software engineer at Meta with nine years of hands-on experience building infrastructure, currently contributing to Twine, Facebook’s container orchestration system. A Yale BS/MS candidate (’22), he blends academic rigor with practical systems work across internships and research—from smart NIC compiler superoptimization at DIMACS to SDE work at Amazon and a production software role at Dulcian Health. He co-founded a startup, helped run an 800+ participant YHack as executive director, and has taught core CS courses as an undergraduate learning assistant, demonstrating both technical depth and operational leadership. Known for shipping low-level systems and developer-facing tooling, he also brings unusual breadth: published combustion research from his chemical engineering lab work and practical product ownership experience in corporate technology.
