Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSimon Zeng is a software engineer based in London with a strong functional-programming pedigree and nine years of hands-on experience across systems, firmware tooling, and quantitative infrastructure. He has shipped low-level OCaml libraries and compiler-toolchain work at Jane Street, built Haskell-driven C code generation and schedulers for Tesla firmware, and now contributes to quant commodities software at D. E. Shaw. His background spans blockchain smart contracts, Kubernetes DevOps, performance engineering in Clojure, and network protocol fuzzing—showing an unusual mix of formal-math-informed thinking and pragmatic tooling. Comfortable across OCaml, Haskell, Clojure, Python and C, he pairs deep language expertise with production-grade system integration and a taste for comp-sci theory, reflected in tutoring roles on number theory and formal logic.
