Senior🎓
Top SchoolPatrick Ting is a Staff Engineer in Platform Architecture with 15 years building high-throughput web and data systems, now shaping platform strategy at Samsung Ads from a foundation of hands-on architecture and SRE work. He led engineering and architecture at VideoAmp—driving a Scala-to-Go migration, real-time DSP/RTB systems, and large-scale ingestion/export pipelines using Kafka, Snowflake, Kubernetes and cloud-native tooling. Patrick combines backend systems expertise (including contributions to the Scalding open-source project) with product-facing delivery, having managed teams and cross-team integrations for ad-tech and video analytics. He’s comfortable across the stack—from low-latency bidding engines to data pipelines and observability—and brings a pragmatic mix of leadership, cleanup-by-code, and long-term platform thinking. An early career background in video analytics and scalable ETL at OneScreen and Scalding work informs his knack for turning high-volume data problems into repeatable, testable platform services.
