# Weih Li > Senior Software Engineer at Waymo Location: Mountain View, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/weih “Success is walking from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm.” My enthusiasm for programming started in 2009 when I took my first computer science class in University of California, Berkeley. My roommate and I built a classic Othello game using Scheme language, which awarded us second place in a contest. In 2010, I decided to withdraw from UCB to pursue my dream of becoming a software developer. Since then, I had taken multiple computer science courses in City College of San Francisco: from Java to HTML to CSS to Objective-C to Perl to MIPS. In Fall 2014, I attended to App Academy, a web development bootcamp with acceptance rate < 5%. I learned Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, jQuery, and backbone.js. In addition, I finally had a chance to learn how to build an app under version control in an agile software development. Interesting fact: I went back to UCB to finish my bachelor degree in Biology in 2013. ## Work Experience ### Senior Software Engineer @ Waymo Jan 2023 – Present | United States ### Software Engineer @ Waymo Jan 2021 – Jan 2023 | United States ### Software Engineer @ Verily Life Sciences Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 | South San Francisco, California, United States ### Software Engineer @ Google Jan 2019 – Jan 2021 | Mountain View, California ### Senior Software Engineer @ Alibaba Cloud Jan 2017 – Jan 2018 | Beijing City, China • Design and implement responsive web UI for a CI/CD tool that serves Alibaba public cloud users. • Contribute software engineering expertise to a project that consolidates multiple PaaS products into a single product. ### Member of Technical Staff III @ Castlight Health Jan 2017 – Jan 2017 | San Francisco Bay Area Design, develop and implement high performance, scalable distributed web applications using software engineering principles. • Build REST APIs. • Design and maintain databases. • Understand complex systems and requirements and formulate optimal designs to meet current and future needs. • Work with teams in San Francisco and India. • Communicate with cross functional teams and share concepts with developers. ### Member of Technical Staff II @ Castlight Health Jan 2016 – Jan 2017 ### Member of Technical Staff I @ Castlight Health Jan 2015 – Jan 2016 ### MIPS tutor @ City College of San Francisco Jan 2014 – Jan 2014 | San Francisco Bay Area Assist students in efficiently solving MIPS assembly language problems in computer labs. ### Data-Entry/General Clerk @ Chinese Community Health Care Association Jan 2011 – Jan 2012 | San Francisco Bay Area Organize physicians’ medical data and provide patients with the most relevant, up-to-date medical information. ## Education ### Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Molecular Environmental Biology University of California, Berkeley Jan 2008 – Jan 2013 ### Computer Software Engineering App Academy Jan 2014 – Jan 2014 ### Computer Science City College of San Francisco Jan 2011 – Jan 2014 ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/weihli --- Source: https://flows.cv/weih JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/weih/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-22
