Top SchoolYi-jia Cai is a Senior Software Engineer with 9 years’ experience building high-performance systems across financial trading, big-data processing, and gaming industries. Based in London with roots in Taiwan, she combines a Master’s in Computer Science from Queen Mary University with strong C++, C#, Python and cloud tooling expertise (Docker, AWS, Azure) to deliver production-ready software. Her track record includes halving transaction times for a futures trading system and engineering real-time data pipelines at Micron, demonstrating an ability to optimize latency-sensitive systems. Yi-jia co-founded a developer-focused initiative (PM 晚上不加班) while continuing hands-on engineering at HP, showing she balances product-minded entrepreneurship with enterprise delivery. She’s an avid project builder and collaborator—her GitHub underscores a practical, C++-oriented craft—and she’s equally likely to trade ideas over code reviews as over a Cornish pasty. Practical, curious and results-driven, she seeks roles where low-latency software meets scalable cloud infrastructure.
