Received several awards such as Argonne Leadership Computing Facility Director’s Discretionary award (2025), Google Cloud Research Credits (2025), etc.
Research Experience
Technical lead on Google’s Network Infrastructure team, building Google’s Jupiter fabric and its SDN controller Orion.
Education
PhD: Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, co-advised by Srinivasan Seshan and Peter Steenkiste; MSc: Computer Engineering at the University of Virginia; BSc: Electrical Engineering at Wuhan University.
Background
Research Interests: Delivering scalable, cost- and power-efficient connectivity to networked systems. Recent work includes data center and HPC networks, optical networks, and machine learning systems.
Miscellany
Enjoys scuba diving and rock climbing. Built a 4-node FPGA Bitcoin miner which costs more in power than its profit.
