Senior🎓
Top SchoolYichen Wang is a Cloud Networking Engineer with 11 years of experience building high-performance, production-grade infrastructure across large-scale data centers. Based in San Jose, he has driven IAAS support for US/EU regions and led the design and implementation of an L4 load balancer (PLB-XLT) combining P4 pipelines, FPGA libs, and x86 agents to cut costs and boost forwarding performance. At Cisco he delivered key NFV and VIM features—segment routing, VxLAN overlays, and performance tuning (NUMA, CPU pinning, huge pages)—and co-authored widely used benchmarking tools like NFVbench. He blends systems-level expertise (kernel, virtualization, RDMA) with practical cloud operations and has academic grounding from Purdue and a graduate AI certificate from Stanford. Notably, he built a VM RDMA PoC based on vhost-user-rdma and has a track record of turning hardware-software co-design into deployable IAAS gains.
