Zhou Yu is a software engineer and entrepreneur with 11 years of experience building distributed systems and game backends, currently co-founding CESol from Koper, Slovenia. He spent several years at Improbable shaping SpatialOS platform and helping partners like NetEase architect and deliver large-scale multiplayer experiences. A former Pivotal engineer with a strong open-source and cloud deployments background, he combines deep systems thinking from an MEng in Joint Mathematics and Computing at Imperial with a hands-on track record across production services.
