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 OpenAI, trading firms (Citadel, Jump Trading, HRT, Two Sigma, AQR), big tech (Google, Meta, Doordash, LinkedIn, Coinbase, Amazon), and startups (Databricks, Stripe, Glean).

Kuai is a great listener and experienced mentor! He helped identify areas I could work on: framing, technical articulation, system design, questions to ask co-founders - and gave me solid actionable advice. I appreciate that he is able to talk to you at your level and what stage you are at within your career. I'll definitely reach out again to him for additional advice. :)

You tell Kuai your goals. They see exactly what you want to work on before session one.
You meet within days. Kuai reviews your application and books your first session, usually within a day or two.
You leave with a plan. Concrete next steps and a weekly rhythm from your very first week.
