I am currently a Production Engineer at Facebook on PE Security team focusing on infrastructure and security services such as authentication and authorization. Production Engineering at Facebook is a hybrid between software and systems engineering; it keeps Facebook running smoothly and scaling efficiently. The Production Engineering team works within Facebook’s product and infrastructure teams to make sure our services are reliable and scalable. The team writes code and debugs hard problems in live production that impact more than 2 billion people around the world. From backend services like our Hadoop data warehouses to front-end services like Messages and News Feed, to infrastructure components like our caching infrastructure, load balancing and deployment systems, the Production Engineering team makes sure Facebook keeps running.

I received the B.S. degree, summa cum laude, in Electrical Engineering from Portland State University in 2012 and the M.S. degree in Computer and Information Science from the University of Pennsylvania in 2018. After graduation from PSU, I joined Intel Corporation in Vietnam as a Process & Equipment Engineer (2012-2013), where I also served as a Technical Supervisor (2013-2014) and a Data Analyst (2014-2015). During my stay at Penn, I was a Research Assistant under the supervision of Dr. Insup Lee, and a member of the PRECISE Center.
