Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPei Wang is a software engineer with nine years of experience specializing in security, static analysis, and programming language theory, currently working at Google on XSS prevention and supply chain security. He combines deep research roots—including SGX enclave internals and ECDSA/attestation work at Apache Teaclave—with practical engineering, shipping build-system automation and Bazel rules for large projects like Angular. A former security researcher at Baidu USA with advanced degrees from Waterloo and Penn State, he is on the path to becoming a web security expert while retaining strong systems and cryptography instincts. Notably, his open-source contributions span both secure enclave tooling and front-end build automation, reflecting an unusual blend of low-level trusted computing and developer ergonomics.
