Xufei Wu is a data scientist with 10+ years of engineering experience who currently leads inventory forecasting for datacenter parts in Google Cloud and works at Optiver. He has built end-to-end forecasting pipelines that combine statistical models and production software, drawing on strong algorithmic and programming skills in C++, Python, R and Matlab. Trained as a PhD in mechanical engineering with deep expertise in nanoscale heat transfer, molecular dynamics and first-principles calculations, he has authored 15+ journal papers with 1,500+ citations—evidence of rigorous, research-driven problem solving. His background spans high-performance C++ game-server and Unity/Unreal development, giving him uncommon fluency across simulation, production systems and real-time code. Comfortable bridging academic modeling with pragmatic engineering, he holds an EB1-A green card as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability. Based in Mountain View, he combines advanced math/statistics with hands-on software delivery to tackle hard forecasting and simulation challenges.
