Summary
Xiangyang Shi is a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Amazon AGI with eight years of experience building large-scale data and model pipelines that power generative AI products. He led design and optimization of Nova’s data-prep and compute fabric—scaling to thousands of A10G GPUs and hundreds of thousands of CPU cores—improving throughput 16× while cutting costs to 20% of baseline. Xiangyang combines systems-level skills (cloud, HPC, distributed inference) with frontend/graphics experience, having delivered realtime avatar streaming and production model inference for Nova Canvas. He champions automation and agentic data enrichment to shift teams from implementation work to strategic data decisions, and he balances a long-term engineering mindset with a bias for rapid execution. Trained at SJTU and USC, he is active in cross-disciplinary engineering that spans model evaluation, rendering, and infrastructure integration.
