Zhonghui Hu is a Software Engineer II with five years’ experience building cloud-native back-end and DevOps tooling, currently based in Kirkland and working at Google. He has strong AWS experience from multiple roles at Amazon and AWS, where he improved CI/CD and container image pipelines and automated multi-region image publishing. As a core contributor to the widely used Fluent Bit project, he implemented S3 and CloudWatch integrations, added features like canned ACLs and UUID-backed keying, and fixed memory leaks—work that spans C code changes and systems-level integrations. Zhonghui combines production-first engineering with a solid academic foundation (MS in Computer Science from Brown), and quietly excels at bridging application code with deployment automation to deliver reliable logging and metrics pipelines.
