Summary
Ray Zhu is a software engineer and UC Davis computer science student with nine years of hands-on experience building backend systems, ML fairness research tools, and production workflows. He has interned at Ramp (twice) working on Python and Rust workflows and Procurement AI agents, and completed a summer internship at Meta focused on ads performance. Ray blends academic research—exploring fairness in ML visualization for DNA—with practical product work at startups like Atoma Media and GymBuddy, showing a knack for shipping end-to-end features. Known for a curious, build-first mindset ("I like to build cool stuff"), he balances rigorous academics (4.0 GPA) with fast-moving industry internships in the Bay Area. Notably, his experience spans both low-level systems work in Rust and applied ML fairness research, a combination that helps bridge research and production.
