Welcome to my corner of the internet! ๐ŸŒ Iโ€™m Sheldon Wang โ€” I build production AI agent systems at Meta scale. (Staff Engineer, Tech Lead @ Facebook Monetization; ex-Snapchat iOS Lead, top-10 all-time committer ๐Ÿ†)

$5M+/yr saved by agents Iโ€™ve shipped ยท top 3 of 700+ engineers org-wide in coding contribution ยท 12+ years across iOS, Android, web & backend for 3B+ users.

This site is where I share what Iโ€™m learning โ€” bilingual deep-dives on LLMs & agents 3ร—/week, investment notes, and life experiments.

๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ What Youโ€™ll Find Here

๐Ÿ“” Tech Blog Posts

Deep dives into AI agents, system design, iOS development, and the art of building software that millions love. From multi-agent orchestration patterns to performance optimization tips that actually work. New to the AI series? Start with the ๐Ÿค– AI & Agents collection.

๐Ÿ’ธ Investment & Finance

My thoughts on markets, money, and making sense of the economic chaos around us. Expect data-driven analysis mixed with just enough skepticism to keep things interesting. Warning: may contain unpopular opinions about crypto. ๐Ÿ˜

๐ŸŽฎ Life & Interests

The fun stuff! Productivity hacks that donโ€™t suck, life experiments worth trying, and whatever random rabbit holes Iโ€™ve fallen down lately. Think of it as the place where professional meets personal (and occasionally weird).

๐Ÿ› Playground

Interactive demos and experiments โ€“ because sometimes you need to see code in action rather than just read about it. Come here when you want to break things in a safe environment.

๐ŸŽฏ Who Am I?

The Professional Side ๐Ÿ’ผ

Current Role: Staff Software Engineer, Tech Lead at Meta (June 2025 - Present) โ€” Facebook Monetization

  • Building production AI agent systems: self-evolving multi-agent pipelines, schema-constrained handoffs, node/graph-based agent architectures supporting 100+ engineers
  • Applied impact: AI exploration agent driving 0.01%+ revenue lift ยท deadcode codemod agent saving $5M+/yr ยท ObjCโ†’Swift migration codemod (30k+ LOC in 3 months)
  • Rated Greatly Exceeds; ranked top 3 of 700+ engineers org-wide in coding contribution
  • Led ads post-rendering reliability ($20โ€“40M revenue protected); drove org Swift adoption from 5% to 50% of new code

Previous: iOS Lead at Snap Inc. (March 2019 - June 2025)

  • Led Memories team serving 150M+ iOS daily users
  • Backup stack rewrite โ†’ $10M+/yr infra savings; cut P90 image latency 40%, video latency 60%
  • Led Matcha: 200K-line architecture refactor (10 engineers, 30+ teams)
  • Technical Excellence Award (company-wide); mentored 5+ engineers to E5 promotion

Earlier: Senior iOS Engineer at BMW (connected car platform) and Citi Mobile (banking)

  • Shipped connected-car experiences, cross-platform features, and banking apps for millions

The Real Me ๐ŸŒŸ

Iโ€™m the guy who:

  • Gets genuinely excited about elegant system architecture ๐Ÿ—๏ธ
  • Spends too much time optimizing workflows (guilty!) โšก
  • Thinks the best conversations happen over good food and bad puns ๐Ÿœ
  • Believes in sharing knowledge โ€“ hence this site! ๐Ÿ“š

My Superpower ๐Ÿฆธ

Taking complex technical concepts and making them actually understandable. Whether thatโ€™s multi-agent orchestration, iOS memory management, or why your investment portfolio allocation might need rethinking.

I build systems that scale to billions, and write content that helps people level up. Thatโ€™s the goal here.

๐Ÿš€ What Iโ€™ve Been Up To

Recent Highlights:

  • ๐Ÿค– Building production multi-agent systems at Meta (self-improving agent loops, agent infra & CI reliability)
  • โœ๏ธ Publishing bilingual deep-dives on LLMs & AI agents 3ร—/week (LinkedIn + this blog)
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Tracking AI infrastructure & datacenter trends (the 800V DC rabbit hole runs deep)
  • ๐Ÿ‹๏ธ Training 4ร—/week, cutting toward 175 lbs โ€“ the cut is documented, the snacks are not

Fun Stats:

  • ๐Ÿค– Production agent systems supporting 100+ engineersโ€™ workflows
  • ๐Ÿ’ฐ $5M+/yr saved by a single codemod agent I built
  • ๐Ÿงช 150+ A/B tests led (up to 200k LOC in a single test)
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Top-10 all-time Snapchat iOS committer ยท Top 3 of 700+ engineers org-wide at Meta
  • ๐Ÿ‘ฅ 5+ engineers mentored to E5 promotion
