Hi, I'm Peng-Yu Chen and I grew up in a small island called Penghu in Taiwan. Now, I'm a Software Engineer at Google NYC. Before that, I was pursuing my M.S. in Computer Science at NYU.

I received my B.S. in Computer Science from National Taiwan University and developed my enthusiasm for software engineering during that time.

Being fascinated by remarkable software practices and engineering excellence, I always believe in following good coding conventions.

Wendy's Chicken is my first meal in the US.

C is the first programming language I learned.

C++ is my favorite language though it has many caveats.

I know a little Japanese.

I watch animes.

• Design, build, and run a data serving platform that empowers all of Alphabet's speech and audio ML research

• Built messaging infrastructure for a single and consistent logic in C++ to bridge iOS and Android with backend
• Sped up the messaging experience in fetching feed and syncing feed by parallelization for 20% through A/B study
• Implemented GoogleTest to cover 99% of the business logic in both unit testing and integration testing

• Established GraphQL APIs by Hack and created Python scripts that call the APIs to onboard Jest tests, allowing iOS and Android developers to have a uniform script to onboard newly written Jest tests
• Recommended trial numbers to lower the standard deviation of metric values by over 25% for three Jest tests
• Tinkered new formula for reasonable trial numbers with senior engineers and reported the process in daily standup
