Summary
Zhanwei Cao is a software engineer and MS Computer Science candidate at Northeastern University, graduating Summer 2026, with nine years of industry and research-adjacent experience spanning full-stack development, cloud-native systems, and AI integrations. He has built production features from Java Spring Boot backends to React/TypeScript frontends, automated CI/CD on AWS, and shipped GPT-powered tooling and Lambda-driven workflows that reduced manual effort in legal and content-editing products. As a TA for Reinforcement Learning, he blends hands-on engineering with academic rigor, and previously improved data pipelines and churn models at China Telecom using SQL and Python. Notably, his internships delivered measurable impacts—cutting lawyer paperwork workload by 15% and improving editor iteration time by 25%—while maintaining strong test coverage and API performance. Based in Seattle, he’s seeking New Grad SDE roles for Fall 2026 where he can apply his multidisciplinary skill set to scalable, user-facing systems.
