Summary
Xiangfei Zhu is a Staff Engineer with over a decade of experience designing and delivering cloud and telco automation solutions, currently working on Telco Cloud Automation at Broadcom after an 11-year tenure at VMware. He has deep expertise in virtualization, OpenStack, big data extensions for vSphere, and large-scale automation across carrier and enterprise platforms. Earlier roles as a technical manager and team lead at Thomson Reuters and TOM Online highlight his ability to transition teams to agile practices, implement CI/CD pipelines, and drive product integrations between business and engineering. Comfortable across Java, Python, C#, and both Linux and Windows environments, he blends hands-on development with systems-level architecture. Based in Haidian, Beijing, he pairs an international education (UT Austin, Tsinghua) with practical experience integrating telecom, cloud, and search technologies. A less obvious strength is his track record of shrinking release cycles and operational friction—demonstrated by measurable delivery improvements in past leadership roles.
