About

👋 Hi! I’m Kuai, currently a Director of Engineering at an AI startup. With experience at Two Sigma, Google, and Citadel, I have a decade-long track record in tech and finance. I mentor both software engineers and managers, helping them navigate and succeed in their engineering careers.

My mentees have received offers from 30+ companies, including trading firms (Citadel, Jump Trading, HRT, Two Sigma, AQR), big tech (Google, Meta, Doordash, LinkedIn, Coinbase, Amazon), and startups (Glean, Databricks, Stripe).

What mentees say

5 out of 5 stars

I booked a session with Kuai for resume and positioning feedback for Applied AI Engineer roles.The session was more strategic than tactical: instead of only reviewing resume wording, Kuai focused on bigger-picture positioning, company targeting, and how my background may be interpreted in the current market. Overall, I’d recommend Kuai if you’re looking for direct, honest feedback and are open to discussing bigger-picture career positioning, not just tactical edits.
