Senior🎓
Top SchoolYin Zhong is a software engineer with 13 years of experience building systems at the intersection of robotics, autonomy, and machine learning. After an MS in Robotics from Carnegie Mellon, Yin moved from industrial automation into autonomous vehicles at Pony.ai and then to large-scale ML infrastructure at Google (TPU compilers, XLA, JAX, and Gemini performance). Currently at Google DeepMind, Yin focuses on advancing autonomy and AI capabilities, blending low-level systems work with perception and control expertise. He has hands-on experience across perception, planning, simulation, and database/query execution from roles at Pony.ai and SingleStore, plus telemetry backend work at Microsoft. Based in Fremont, CA, Yin has sustained a decade-long robotics dream while translating it into production-facing autonomy and ML systems. A practical systems thinker, he often bridges software-hardware co-design challenges that are easy to overlook until late in a project.
