10+ years as professional and experienced engineers in FANNG company. (Uber, Netflix, Bazaarvoice, Coinbase, Microsoft AI...etc) Conducted interviews regularly for e3-e6 engineers including system design, coding, and behavior rounds. Currently, working as an AI engineering lead.

In addition to my engineering background, I also love to teach. I've conducted several open workshops and 1-on-1 tutor/mentorship in the past with solid successful tracks. (can provide successful stories from my real mentees and students if needed)

Incredible Mentor! Deep dive sessions on system design and mock system design interviews helped me go from total beginner to confident senior. Also spend several sessions doing mock coding interviews to knock out my nerves before FAANG interviews. Deep knowledge, clear communication and real experience makes Yi-Ju an incredible Mentor!
