Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYujian Zhao is a funding engineer and seasoned cloud-focused software engineer with a decade of experience building secure, large-scale infrastructure and distributed systems. Based in California, he has driven security-focused projects at Google—working on Secure LB, Secure Proxy, and Security Keys—and earlier built monitoring, log-scanning, and distributed control systems at Baidu that managed thousands of servers. He combines deep systems and security engineering with practical cloud deployment experience, often implementing production-grade observability and control using tools like etcd and Prometheus. Now at Stoody AI, he’s applying that background to funding engineering while retaining hands-on engineering instincts from years of shipping reliable backend systems. His academic path—UCLA MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering plus study at National Tsing Hua and Southeast University—underscores a strong theoretical foundation paired with broad international experience. Colleagues describe him as the kind of engineer who translates security and cloud research into operational, scalable services.
