Mikyo King is an entrepreneurial full-stack engineer and Head of Open Source at Arize AI with 11 years of experience building cloud-native, production-grade systems and developer-facing tools. He’s a founding engineer and software architect who has led efforts across infrastructure, backend, and UI—shipping scalable ML infrastructure, GraphQL-first APIs, and live-updating frontends. Comfortable from Kubernetes, Bazel, and Go to TypeScript and React, Mikyo bridges deep engineering with product sensibility and a history of re-architecting systems for collaboration, security, and real-time UX. Prior roles at Engine ML and Apple showcase his ability to design complex distributed services and high-quality interfaces, while his current OSS leadership signals a focus on developer ecosystems and community-driven impact. A former solo UI-and-backend owner who implemented features like live log viewers, intuitive team/project slugs, and JWT/OAuth security, he pairs hands-on implementation skills with strategic technical leadership.
