Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLiping Zhang is a Staff Lead ML Scientist based in San Jose with a decade of experience building large-scale search, recommendation, and ranking systems for consumer and enterprise products. She has led cross-organizational teams at Pinterest and JD.com to design and ship production two-tower recommenders, conversion-focused multi-task models, and personalized shopping surfaces that measurably lifted GMV, CTR, and conversions. At Adobe she now applies that product-scale ML and content-intelligence expertise to Sensei and search, while her earlier roles at Intel, Cloudera, and IBM reflect deep systems and big-data infrastructure experience. Liping combines hands-on model development (TensorFlow, Spark MLlib, XGBoost) with platform design for online/offline pipelines and real-time serving. She holds multiple U.S. patents and has repeatedly taken pioneering approaches—such as introducing checkout-conversion models into Pinterest shopping—to turn research into business impact.
