About

Hi, I'm Yuxin Peng. I'm a Software Engineer at Tencent and hold a Master's degree from Zhejiang University (ZJU). My journey into Computer Science began when I was introduced to Computational Linguistics during my sophomore year. Fascinated by the intersection of language and technology, I started teaching myself programming and gradually transitioned from a background in language education into software engineering. Alongside this journey, I conducted research in educational technology and computational linguistics at Zhejiang University, while also pursuing internships at Tencent and Alibaba. These experiences allowed me to explore both academic research and real-world software engineering from different perspectives. One quote that has guided me throughout my journey is: “Let your curiosity be greater than your fear.” Transitioning from language studies to software engineering was far from a straightforward path. There were moments of uncertainty, self-doubt, and many sleepless nights. But every challenge reinforced a belief that continues to drive me today: there are always more possibilities waiting to be explored.
