Sheng Wang

Senior Data Scientist/Algo Solution PIC

Summary

As an Algorithm Solution PIC, I bridge business needs and algorithm capabilities to drive impactful outcomes across search, recommendation, and assortment growth. I specialize in translating complex requirements into executable solutions — from building scalable traffic boosting pipelines to developing models that identify high-potential assortments.

I also lead the development of AI tools that empower non-technical teams — including a LangGraph-based agent powered by GPT-4 that supports relevance review, category prediction, and SQL-free data access.

With a strong focus on strategy, execution, and visibility, I collaborate cross-functionally to prioritize roadmaps, manage delivery, and surface insights that support fast, data-driven decisions.
