Tieying Zhang is a Research Director and systems-for-AI specialist with 11 years of experience building deployable, theory-grounded database and infrastructure solutions across academia and industry. After a postdoc at CMU focused on self-driving DBMS and AI-powered transaction scheduling, she contributed to production-grade systems such as Peloton, Apache Trafodion, PolarDB-X and DAS while serving research and leadership roles at Alibaba and ByteDance. Her work spans AI-for-systems (AI4DB, AI4storage, AI4OS, AI4Infra) and the reverse—systems that scale AI—combining rigorous research with pragmatic implementations. A program committee member for SIGMOD, ICDE and VLDB, she brings both publication-level rigor and product-minded engineering to large-scale distributed databases. Based in Sunnyvale, she is known for translating complex scheduling and many-core optimization research into real-world DBMS features.
