About Ming Zhang
I am a Senior Director of Engineering at Uber where I lead a team of passionate engineers to protect, defend, and secure Uber's products, infrastructure and data by building highly available, scalable, and extensible security solutions and services. Before joining Uber, I worked at Databricks to build the multi-cloud infrastructure that supports the rapid growth of Databricks data and AI offerings. Before that, I spent 6 years in Alibaba where I led the development of automation systems that manage Alibaba’s global cloud networks. Further back, I worked at Microsoft and delivered multiple key technologies that power the cloud networks of Microsoft Azure. I hold 20+ US patents and publish many seminal papers in top systems and networking conferences including SIGCOMM, OSDI, and NSDI. I also served on the program committee of top academic conferences (e.g., ACM SIGCOMM).
