Chunbin Lin is currently a senior staff engineer at Visa Genai Platform team building a large scale paltform for model serving and model inferencing.
Before that, he worked at Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Redshift team. Besides that, he also interned at IBM, Informatica and NUS.
He obtained his PhD degree in Computer Science from University of California, San Diego (UCSD). His PhD advisor is Prof. Yannis Papakonstantinou.

  • Genai Platform - Build high performance platform to integrate various LLMs including openai models, anthropic models, and also open-source models. It provides load balancer, rate limit and content inspection services all together to offer a low latency and high availability system.
  • Machine Learning Platform - Build high performance platform to support feature creation, model training and scoring, and model depolyment. Enable AutoML to provide automatic end-to-end solution for ML life cycle.
  • Machine learning based workload management - Applying machine learning techniques in database to improve the throughput by predicting queries' execution time, memeory requirement and cpu cycles and performing the optimal scheduling.
