# Lei Ye > Founder @ Notrix | AI Reliability & Production ML Systems Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/lei Infrastructure tends to stay invisible — until scale exposes fragility, reliability reveals design shortcuts, and costs surface architectural trade-offs. Over time, I’ve become increasingly drawn to: • Distributed system behavior under pressure • Reliability as a design property, not a patch • Economic scaling mechanics in cloud-native systems • Failure containment and blast-radius control • ML platform foundations when they intersect with real production constraints Well-designed systems age gracefully. Poorly designed systems accumulate hidden debt. Architecture is leverage. ## Work Experience ### Founder @ Notrix LLC Jan 2025 – Present | San Francisco, CA ### Senior Software Engineer @ Core42 Jan 2023 – Jan 2025 | Abu Dhabi Led the architecture and development of distributed infrastructure platforms, ML systems, and compliance automation solutions while managing hybrid engineering teams. * Overseeing development execution and operational scalability of a distributed platform generating ~$200k in revenue, coordinating outsourced engineering teams and improving platform security and reliability. * Led development of a Compliance-as-Code platform on Microsoft Azure using Terraform and Python, enabling automated infrastructure compliance and policy enforcement. * Built an AI-native compliance agent for FinTech environments on Azure, integrating AI-driven analysis with cloud-native infrastructure and scalable data pipelines. ### Senior Software Engineer @ HSBC Jan 2019 – Jan 2023 | Guangzhou-Foshan Metropolitan Area * Contributed to development and operations of a global FX trading platform supporting ~$400B daily trading volume within a DevOps-driven distributed infrastructure. * Led disaster recovery architecture and seasonal resilience testing for a 30-service microservice platform, ensuring system availability and fault tolerance. * Architected and delivered credit scoring systems integrating financial data providers across multiple regions, supporting cross-border risk evaluation. ### Software Engineer @ HSBC Jan 2017 – Jan 2019 | Guangzhou, Guangdong, China - Developed few micro services supporting data cleaning and analyzing. - Code review and version control for multiple applications. - Lift up selenium auto test application to support another application of the system. - Upgraded jenkins and ansible scripts to support daily release, as well as rollback. - Communicating change requirements with business, code, test and deploy. ### Java Developer @ 广东网金控股股份有限公司 Jan 2017 – Jan 2017 | Guagnzhou, Guangdong, China - Communicate with PM and teammates on database design and API design. - Developed several applications (both backend and frontend) including technology of authorization and different types of database, UAT passed. - Restful API development in support of other systems. ### Software Engineer @ KeymanTek Jan 2014 – Jan 2016 | Shenzhen, Guangdong, China - Work closely with vendor and hardware architect on interface/protocol design and testing - Successfully developed and delivered applications for three provinces - Onsite (client’s) installation, testing, support and training - Provided solution design and documentation for several other systems - Interviewed and trained several new joiners ### International Product Engineer @ Chinasoft International Jan 2013 – Jan 2014 | Beijing, China - Testing and debugging internationalized Microsoft products. - Communicate with teammates and US developers on issues and changes. ## Education ### Master's degree in Computer Science (Artificial Intelligence) Sofia University Jan 2025 – Jan 2027 ### Bachelor of Science (BS) in Information Technology Hubei University of Technology Jan 2010 – Jan 2014 ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/lei-ye-07 --- Source: https://flows.cv/lei JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/lei/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-22
