Stephen Zhao

I'm a Software Developer with 6+ years of industry experience in web, systems, desktop, and cloud development.

I currently develop data pipelines and microservices for online analytical processing and reporting at Bloomberg LP.

I'm a University of Waterloo graduate with a Bachelor of Computer Science degree. My area of focus was Artificial Intelligence.

Some of my favourite technologies:

  • TypeScript, for its gushingly rich type system.
  • Trino, for its versatility (performance, data size, interactability), superb connectivity, and of being the leading example implementation of the concept of federated query.
  • .NET with C#, for LINQ (over everything), near-native performance while remaining cross-platform, the Task Parallel Library (and async/await), and built-in support for idiomatic Dependency Injection.

Please reach out to me at [email protected] with opportunities. My resumé is available upon request. Check out my social media links above for more about me.

Besides my work, I have interests in mathematics and urban planning. I like hiking and hope to do a 14'er one day.
