Hi, I’m Eric Liu. I am a Staff Software Engineer and Tech Lead Manager (TLM) at Google, based in Sunnyvale, CA. My work focuses on Infrastructure Performance and Customer Engineering, specifically for GPUs and TPUs. I lead teams that bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI hardware and the latest ML models (like Gemini), ensuring optimal performance and reliability at Google Cloud scale. I thrive in the ambiguous space where hardware constraints meet software ambition—whether it’s debugging race conditions across thousands of chips or designing API surfaces for next-gen models.

# About

Hi, I’m Eric Liu.

I am a Staff Software Engineer and Tech Lead Manager (TLM) at Google, based in Sunnyvale, CA.

My work focuses on Infrastructure Performance and Customer Engineering, specifically for GPUs and TPUs. I lead teams that bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI hardware and the latest ML models (like Gemini), ensuring optimal performance and reliability at Google Cloud scale. I thrive in the ambiguous space where hardware constraints meet software ambition—whether it’s debugging race conditions across thousands of chips or designing API surfaces for next-gen models.

Beyond the code, I maintain this “digital garden” where I document my projects and learnings. It serves as my second brain, capturing everything from technical deep dives to random musings. I believe in “learning in public”—so you’ll find unpolished notes on troubleshooting Kubernetes clusters alongside recipes I’m refining. It’s not just a blog; it’s a living repository of my curiosity.

### Personal Interests Link to heading

I’m a tinkerer at heart, whether digital or physical:

- Homelab: Kubernetes, Proxmox, and self-hosted services. I love over-engineering my home network.
- DIY & Jeep: Maintaining and modifying my Jeep, and general DIY projects.
- Cooking: experimenting with new recipes and techniques.

Welcome to my corner of the internet.
