Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWei Ho is an experienced software engineer in applied machine learning with a decade of industry experience building production-grade language and translation systems at Meta and earlier ML infrastructure and serving platforms at Google. He combines deep practical knowledge of neural machine translation with backend engineering skills, contributing to prominent open-source projects like fairseq and PyTorch Translate where he improved dataset/ checkpointing, model exporting, and memory efficiency. Based in San Francisco, he has a track record of moving models from research into deployable formats (including ONNX export) and optimizing tooling that teams rely on. A Princeton summa cum laude CS graduate, he blends academic rigor with hands-on systems work and a penchant for refactoring messy code into reliable, maintainable components.
