Liangchao Wu is a Senior Algorithm Engineer with 10 years of experience designing large-scale ranking, recommendation, and monetization systems that translate algorithmic advances into measurable business growth. He has led traffic and mixed-ranking strategy at TikTok Live and search ads, pioneering score-shading extensions to auction theory, unified UX value modeling, and uplift-based intervention strategies that balance short-term revenue with long-term retention. Previously he launched industry-scale federated learning in ads at ByteDance and built creator monetization and distribution systems at Xiaohongshu that drove double-digit revenue and efficiency gains. A prolific experimenter and team builder, he has shipped 50+ A/B tests, led 0→1 products, and contributed to the bytedance/fedlearner open-source framework. He combines deep causal and auction-theoretic thinking with pragmatic engineering and clear communication, and publishes extensively on ads tech and ranking at wulc.me.
