Tom Zheng is a Co-Founder and CTO with nine years of engineering experience, currently building AI-driven procurement solutions for industrial manufacturing at a Techstars-backed startup in New York. He combines deep distributed-systems research from UPenn—where he implemented Pregel-like graph processing, bloom-filter syncs, and LLVM passes—with hands-on product engineering across mobile and web platforms. Previously he boosted mobile app engagement and performance through platform-level UI optimizations and led full-course instruction in Ruby on Rails, demonstrating both technical depth and clear teaching ability. Comfortable spanning low-level systems work to front-end UX, he’s seeking full-time roles where research-grade systems thinking meets product delivery. An understated strength is his track record of translating research prototypes into production features that measurably improve performance and user metrics.
