Hi, there!

Bonjour!

你好!



Here's WANG Zhao, Matthew.

If you happen to speak Chinese, my Chinese name is 王钊.

I am joining Lyft's payment team as a software engineer from the Toronto office! Looking forward to embarking on this new journey!

Before coming to Canada, I was a quantitative developer at Amber Group's HK office, where I developped high-availability and low-latency trading systems. Prior to that, I was a full-stack SDE at Prudential.

I was born and raised in a small town in Inner Mongolia, a beautiful and unforgettable place set on an vast grassland plateau. After high school, I was fortunate to receive a life-changing full scholarship to study in Hong Kong, where I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees. Other than Canada and Hong Kong, I've also had lived in Europe for a period of time, where I worked as a research intern at LIRMM in France, and participated in an exchange program in the Czech Republic.

Outside of programming, I enjoy Chinese calligraphy, traveling, hiking, and long-distance running (personal best: 10km in 44'02''). During my undergraduate years, I was also a member of my college's table tennis team.
