Liyun Xiu is a seasoned Software Development Engineer with over a decade of experience designing and shipping backend systems, currently working on Alexa OS at Amazon. Skilled in C++, Java, and Python, she combines solid object-oriented design with hands-on REST/HTTP API development and a fondness for low-level C++ work (as her GitHub quip “C++ rules!” suggests). Her career spans major teams at Amazon, Cisco Webex, and Qihoo 360, giving her deep exposure to realtime client and embedded OS challenges. With a Master’s in Computer Science from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, she brings strong self-directed learning and problem-solving capabilities that help bridge research-grade rigor and production reliability. Not obvious from titles alone, she thrives at the intersection of systems programming and service-oriented architectures, often favoring performance-conscious implementations.
