Hi, I'm Hao.
BRIDGEPOD · Seattle, WA
I was one of the first three team members of a US–China SaaS business. Customers have begun onboarding and using the product. My role connects US business priorities with China-based product and engineering execution.
What I have worked on
My experience spans overseas-client outsourcing teams, product development teams and, more recently, AI-assisted engineering workflows. I have participated in product strategy and competitive analysis, and helped connect US requirements with China-side execution.
I receive engineering updates, surface blockers and risks, coordinate changes in priorities, and participate in testing. My operating work has included QA improvements, weekly and monthly reporting, probationary evaluations and quarterly performance-review criteria alongside HR and other stakeholders.
Helping teams adopt AI-assisted development
In late 2025, I proposed adopting AI-assisted development and helped coordinate tool evaluation, changes to engineering and QA workflows, and adoption follow-up alongside engineering and management colleagues. My contribution focused on operational change and coordination, rather than technical architecture or every engineering implementation.
Why I'm building BRIDGEPOD
Adding engineers also creates coordination work: defining the role, organizing evaluation, clarifying responsibilities, and making sure questions reach the right people. My experience has made me interested in helping software companies manage that work more deliberately.
I'm building BRIDGEPOD as an independent service focused on engineering recruitment coordination and cross-border team operations. The intended clients are US software companies with a working product and their own technical leadership.
What I would be responsible for
I coordinate recruiting, initial interviews, onboarding and operating follow-up. Your technical team evaluates candidates and retains final hiring decisions, architecture, engineering standards, code-review authority and production deployment control. A China-side technical lead can support local technical coordination and later hiring within the agreed remit.
Where things stand
BRIDGEPOD is a separate, early-stage initiative. The experience described here comes from my professional work, not BRIDGEPOD client engagements, and does not imply employer endorsement. BRIDGEPOD does not yet have independent customer case studies.
Who I'd like to meet
Founders and technical leaders with a specific role to fill or a China-team coordination problem. Bring a role description or a brief outline of your team, and we can discuss a useful first scope.
