Soloman Weng is a Senior Software Engineer based in Queensland with 13 years of experience building scalable web and data systems and a PhD in Information Retrieval focused on recommendation systems. He blends research rigour with hands-on engineering—having led analytics and ML infrastructure, ELT pipelines, and real-time sentiment and keyword services at intelliHR before joining Atlassian. Soloman has driven performance work across stacks (from Golang microservices and Airflow to React visualisations and optimized chart rendering) and pioneered Ray.io adoption to scale ML services. He also has deep experience in legacy refactoring, data engineering, and infrastructure automation, and has advocated early migration to microservice architectures. A pragmatic mentor and technical leader, he pairs hiring and team development with R&D projects like survival analysis visualisations and internal LLM-powered knowledge assistants. Notably, his background combines academic expertise in recommender systems with practical delivery of interactive analytics and production ML tooling.
