Summary
Shuowen Wei is an experienced SDE/MLE with about a decade of hands-on experience building end-to-end machine learning systems, currently driving real-time and offline ads sourcing and large-scale recommendation infra at Amazon. He combines deep expertise in deep learning, NLP (transformers, BERT), and graph neural networks with strong production skills across AWS, MLOps, and scalable ETL pipelines. Previously as a lead ML engineer at FINRA he delivered high-impact anomaly detection and NLP systems—processing tens of millions of VPC logs daily and clustering over a million emails—to surface security risks and automate regulatory workflows. Shuowen’s background in applied mathematics and research-grade modeling informs a quantitative, experiment-driven approach to feature engineering and model validation. He is selective about roles (H1B/GC sponsorship only) and brings a rare mix of research rigor, full-stack engineering, and practical deployment experience that accelerates ML from prototype to secure, auditable production.
