Yunfei Zheng is a Video Coding and Machine Learning Engineer with over 15 years of deep R&D experience and a decade of industry practice building production video codecs and media-analysis systems. He has driven HEVC/AV1-era standardization contributions and shipped foundational HEVC software at Apple, later leading video algorithm teams at Kuaishou to deliver content-aware encoding systems that saved double-digit bandwidth without QoE loss. Comfortable from low-level C/C++ codec implementations to ML-driven enhancement and perception features, he blends signal-processing theory with practical engineering across mobile and server stacks. He has led hiring and scaled teams to 30+ engineers, proposed and delivered proprietary codecs (KVC) and CAPE systems, and continues to innovate at Apple on video coding and machine learning. Less obvious: his background spans precision instruments and mechanical engineering through a PhD in electrical engineering, giving him atypical cross-disciplinary insight into systems and optimization.
