Summary
Zheng Jiang is a Senior Software Engineer with nine years of experience building high-performance distributed systems and data pipelines, currently applying his skills at a quantitative asset management firm. He combines deep systems-level expertise in C/C++, Linux, and distributed storage with cloud-native data engineering using Spark, Hive, Alluxio and AWS to accelerate ML workflows. His background includes internships at A9 and Cisco where he optimized large-scale data movement—one prototype cutting network bandwidth by up to 90%—and TA work at CMU for machine learning on large datasets. A top-ranked graduate from Shanghai Jiao Tong and an MS student at Carnegie Mellon, he blends academic rigor with production experience, often approaching problems as a systems thinker rather than just a coder.
