Xiaoyun Wang is a Senior GenAI Engineer at NVIDIA with five years of industry experience and a PhD in Computer Science from UC Davis, combining deep research rigor with production-facing AI infrastructure work. She progressed from applied scientist roles into senior GenAI engineering, contributing to GPU-accelerated graph algorithms and scalable defenses/attacks on graph neural networks during multiple NVIDIA internships and research positions. Her background in statistics and applied mathematics supports strong quantitative modeling—evident in past research that achieved 10X–56X speedups and high-accuracy solutions for social network problems. Based in Sunnyvale, she blends systems-level performance optimization with practical ML applications, often turning novel research ideas into highly efficient implementations. An under-the-radar strength is her repeated success in parallelizing and scaling algorithms, expanding problem sizes by orders of magnitude while maintaining real-world impact.
