“I had the privilege of working with Zhichen both at Yahoo, and as my technical lead at Ooyala. He's an outstanding leader, engineer and architect, and excels at understanding the business drivers and market opportunity that drives development efforts. In product management, I especially appreciated Zhichen's unique talent for seeking out the business justification and motivation behind the products he works on, and would not hesitate to challenge product assumptions to get the heart of what will generate the most revenue and customer / consumer value. All around, Zhichen is top-notch talent I look forward to working with again sometime.”
