Senior🎓
Top SchoolYang Wu is a Senior Production Engineer with eight years of hands-on experience building low-level systems for networking and distributed databases, currently at Meta after roles at AWS, Ciena, and Arista. He has deep expertise in C, Linux kernel and driver development, and has contributed to AWS Aurora's logic replication and data-plane simulation and heat-management services. Yang blends embedded systems experience—designing control daemons and Broadcom-based switch logic—with cloud-scale database engineering, enabling robust test infrastructure and metrics for replication. He frequently models complex physical behaviors in software (e.g., thermal models for resource optimization) and writes simulators to validate control-plane designs. Based in Bellevue, he studies machine learning and kernel internals in his spare time to bridge Electrical & Computer Engineering fundamentals with production software. Colleagues know him for turning low-level complexity into auditable, scalable services that cross hardware and cloud boundaries.
