Zhu Zhanyan is a data-focused software engineer and current Data Engineer Intern at IRAS, blending practical production experience with open-source backend contributions. With a decade of hands-on experience, he has modernised legacy data workflows, built cross-platform transpilers, and architected Kedro/Azure pipelines to power a LanceDB-backed RAG application. Previously at Gojek he helped build an internal feature store and resolved critical Redis schema issues, and his Feast contributions improved SDK security and ingestion management for a widely used ML feature store. Comfortable across Python, Java, Go, Spark and cloud stacks, he pairs pragmatic engineering (automations that eliminated manual refreshes) with a penchant for maintainable, auditable systems. Based in Singapore and studying CS at NTU, he often bridges research-to-production gaps by making complex ML data infrastructure reproducible and easier to operate.
