Senior🎓
Top SchoolZhentao Li is an Engineering Manager based in Los Angeles with 12 years of experience leading teams that build high-scale ad tech and video advertising systems. He has repeatedly grown and structured engineering organizations—from founding OpenX’s marketplace quality team to building a video-ads team at Hulu—and now leads engineering at Meta. Zhentao combines hands-on architecture (real-time Kafka/Spark streaming, low-latency services handling tens of billions of requests/day) with product-facing delivery and analytics pipelines that power near-real-time dashboards. He has a strong Java and distributed systems pedigree dating back to enterprise and Hadoop-era projects, and a knack for reducing operational latency (e.g., cutting a budget pipeline from 24 to 3 hours). Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic technical leader who pairs deep systems expertise with recruiting, mentoring, and cross-functional product strategy.
