Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Kwong is a software engineer with nine years of experience building robust CI/CD, test automation, and build infrastructure, currently at Google in New York. He specializes in DevOps and automation for large open-source projects, contributing to high-profile repositories such as Protocol Buffers, gRPC, and OSS-Fuzz to improve cross-platform testing, Docker integration, and migration of CI systems. Matthew’s work often sits at the intersection of developer workflows and release engineering—writing scripts, Kokoro configurations, and Dockerfiles that speed up PR validation and reduce build runtimes. He has hands-on experience solving tricky static linking and fuzzing build issues and adding fuzz targets for gRPC in OSS-Fuzz, showing a focus on software reliability and security. A NYU computer science graduate with a strong academic record, he pairs practical engineering with a knack for streamlining developer experience. Colleagues will notice his preference for automating repetitive tasks to make large-scale collaborations smoother and faster.
