Summary
Larry Wong is a Software Engineer II at Uber with eight years of engineering experience and a strong background in systems, tooling, and developer productivity. He progressed from research at the University of Michigan’s Future of Programming Lab—working on the Hazel live functional programming environment—to building production services and marketplace simulation and pricing at Uber. His internships at MathWorks and Deepgram demonstrate a knack for pragmatic automation: from a Go-based Vault CLI and CI/CD pipelines to latency testing tooling and observability dashboards. Comfortable across C++, Go, Python, and cloud platforms, he focuses on reducing developer toil and improving system reliability. Based in the New York City area and completing an MEng in Computer Science, he pairs academic rigor with hands-on product delivery. A detail that often goes unnoticed: he has experience turning research prototypes into developer-facing tools that streamline real-world workflows.
