Simplified data sharing and querying. Improved data synchronization by 50% with CDC (Change Data Capture), webhooks, and scheduled polling, ensuring real-time updates. · Developed a custom Apex connector to integrate Salesforce with an RDS database, using AppSync for GraphQL resolvers, reducing round trips by 35% by using GraphQL to fetch all required data in a single request. · Transformed SQL DDL to GraphQL schema, enabling AWS Lambda to dynamically build SQL queries and support complex data retrieval without backend changes. Reduced query response time by 45% by aggregating data from multiple RDS sources in a single GraphQL query. · Managed Kafka-based data pipelines to handle data flows between Salesforce and external systems, performing operations such as format conversion, field mapping, and data enrichment to ensure high-quality data. · Used Docker to package applications into containers, making it easier to deploy and manage them consistently across different environments. Used Kubernetes to manage these containers, automatically handling tasks like scaling up or down, finding services, and balancing the load to improve communication and reliability of microservices. ### Software Engineer Intern @ Rubrik Jan 2021 – Jan 2022 · Developed and implemented data encryption at rest and in transit using Go, securing sensitive data, reducing data breach incidents by 80%, and ensuring key management system availability with 99.9% uptime. · Conducted regular backups and implemented disaster recovery plans with automated failover, data replication, and frequent tests, ensuring quick recovery, data integrity, and continuous availability. · Implemented role-based access control (RBAC), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and data masking techniques to enhance security and privacy. Used real-time monitoring and alerts for detecting suspicious activities. · Integrated Redis for caching frequently accessed data, such as user sessions and configuration settings. ### Data Engineer Intern @ 1Point3Acres, LLC Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 ### Software Engineer Intern @ Dimensional Fund Advisors Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | Austin, Texas, United States · Led a project to migrate from one-dimensional Flexbox layout to two–dimensional CSS Grid, reducing the number of media queries by 60% and improving page load times by 25%. · Developed and maintained responsive web applications using Bootstrap, ensuring consistent user experiences through cross-browser and cross-platform testing with Jest. · Maintained QA documentation, including test plans, test procedures, and test reports. ### Software Engineer Intern @ Framework Homeownership Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 | Boston, Massachusetts, United States · Participated in developing Framework Homeownership website homepage, admin page using JavaScript React. · Implemented a search user function using RESTful APIs that allowed users to search for other users based on keywords. · Performed PostgreSQL tasks such as indexing, vacuuming, and updating statistics to ensure database performance. · Maintained engineering excellence by writing unit tests with Jest, Mockito and JUnit. The tests covered 6000+ lines of code and captured 5 critical bugs and 9 minor bugs before release. · Automated testing frameworks and CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins and GitLab, increasing deployment frequency and reducing rollback rates by 40%. ## Education ### Computer Software Engineering Northeastern University ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/zhenyu-jiang-88a422170 - GitHub: https://github.com/001425778-Zhenyu-Jiang?tab=repositories --- Source: https://flows.cv/zhenj JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/zhenj/resume.json Last updated: 2026-04-10
