Summary
Rui Su is a seasoned entrepreneur and cloud-native engineer with 17 years of experience building data platforms and distributed systems. As cofounder of Juicedata, he led the creation and open-sourcing of JuiceFS, a cloud-first file system now used by major adopters for mission-critical AI and data workloads. He combines deep technical expertise in file systems, POSIX/HDFS/S3 compatibility and PB-scale unstructured data management with hands-on product and growth experience from earlier roles at Douban and startups he founded. Rui’s background spans both engineering leadership and founder-level operations—raising funding, scaling teams, and launching services across multiple public clouds. Based in Xiamen and rooted in practical engineering, he brings a developer-first sensibility that prioritizes usability and “setup-and-forget” reliability.
