Summary
Yuan Yao is a Computer Science undergraduate and researcher with nine years of practical experience building high-performance systems and applications. He has hands-on expertise in C++, Java, Python, Swift, and JavaScript, demonstrated by work on zero-copy data stream algorithms and large-scale sorting for MapReduce at Texas A&M’s Internet Research Lab. Yuan has interned at NVIDIA, where he developed and optimized GPU video-encoder stress tests and helped uncover a hardware bug, and he led an iOS app project to aid diabetes management as a top code contributor. Comfortable across systems-level multithreading and memory-efficient I/O as well as web crawling and extension development, he aims to be language-independent by graduation while maintaining deep fluency in core languages. Based in College Station, he combines academic research rigor with production-focused engineering and a knack for finding subtle performance issues.
