I’m a Senior Staff Researcher at Alibaba, working on recursive self-improvement, multi-agent scaling, and agentic RL.

Previously, I was the lead architect of AutoGen at Microsoft Research and helped create the Microsoft Agent Framework and Foundry Agent Platform.

Before that, I worked on database systems research: time-series query processing, data lake search, and data sketches.

I like to work on open-source projects and writing, partly to learn and partly to make technical concepts and algorithms accessible to a wider audience.
