Ryan Niu is a software engineer with nine years of experience and an MS in Computer Science from USC, currently building products at SolidCore.ai. His background blends industry internships at Amazon—where he developed ML infrastructure for recommendations—with graduate research at the National Institute of Informatics on HRTF individualization using deep neural networks and generative models. He holds a BS in Computer Engineering from UC Santa Barbara and has hands-on experience moving research prototypes toward production-ready systems. Comfortable across ML, systems, and full-stack development, Ryan focuses on engineering scalable pipelines that bridge model research and real-world applications. Notably, he has shifted between academic research and high-scale e-commerce ML during his career, giving him a practical perspective on deploying advanced audio and recommendation models. Based in the United States, he brings both experimentation rigor and product-minded execution to startup environments.
