Top SchoolWeiwei Chen is a founder and seasoned tech executive with 13 years of experience building AI, robotics, and large-scale distributed systems, including engineering roles at Google and Snap. As CTO and VP at Turing Video she led 50+ engineers, migrated monolithic services to Go/NoSQL/Kafka microservices, and shipped camera-based AI and fleet robotics solutions deployed at scale for global customers. Her background spans low-latency streaming (WebRTC/HLS/RTSP), SLAM/ROS robotics, and search/ranking infrastructure using BigQuery, Spanner, and Kubernetes, marrying research rigor from a USC PhD with product-focused execution.
