Summary
Mianzhi Wang is a software engineer at Google with a Ph.D. in Electrical and Systems Engineering and 13 years of experience bridging statistical signal processing, optimization, and machine learning. He brings deep expertise in statistical modeling of sensor arrays, asymptotic estimator analysis, and convex optimization applied to compressed sensing, sparse modeling, and optimal transport. Practically minded, he has implemented kernel methods, deep learning models, large-scale nearest neighbor search, and clustering in MATLAB and Python, and is familiar with PyTorch and TensorFlow. His research background informs production work—optimizing algorithms with attention to theoretical performance bounds while shipping scalable systems. Based in California, he combines rigorous academic training with hands-on engineering at Google, and maintains a research portfolio at research.wmz.ninja that highlights less obvious intersections of optimal transport and array signal processing.
