Senior🎓
Top SchoolYong Xian is an Engineering Team Lead based in New York with 11 years of experience building production-grade systems in Java, Python, and C++, now leading engineering efforts at Bloomberg. He specializes in cloud-native and big data architectures, having led a successful cloud migration that decoupled a monolith into scalable, low-latency microservices deployed on both on-premise and AWS platforms. Pragmatic and hands-on, he combines systems-level C++ and graphics experience with modern service design—REST, RPC, brokered messaging, service discovery and failover—to optimize performance and reliability. Known for clear technical direction and cross-team collaboration, he also produces thorough documentation and operational tooling to ensure long-term maintainability. His GitHub hint—“The future of big data and AI boils down to one thing”—reflects a focus on making large-scale data systems practical for AI-driven products.
