Tianshi Chen is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of experience building CI platforms and developer tooling, currently advancing Cruise’s CI observability and Bazel UX. He has driven large-scale cost and efficiency wins—designing Artifacts-on-Demand that saved $70k/month and a disk cache service that recovered 1k+ engineer hours per month—while optimizing JVM and monitoring pipelines across Kubernetes and custom operators. Comfortable across Go, Python, React, and cloud platforms, he prototyped a fault-tolerant gRPC build-events pipeline at 20 MB/s and rearchitected alerts to cut monitoring costs. A UMich CS alumnus based in Bellevue, he pairs deep systems foundations with practical product impact and a knack for surfacing developer-facing insights (e.g., flaky-test dashboards and Bazel profiling) that aren’t obvious from high-level metrics alone.
