Bio
Ye Wang is a second-time founder, researcher, and engineer whose career has consistently pushed the frontier of how teams design and build the physical world. Raised by an industrial designer mother and a manufacturer father, she grew up around the miracle of building. As a teenager, she represented the U.S. at the International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI). She went on to MIT, where she focused on developing advanced manufacturing algorithms and systems. She began her career at Autodesk during the Maker Movement, building early 3D printing tools. She later helped create Onshape, the first cloud-native CAD system, founded Join, a collaboration platform for construction, and most recently led generative AI research at Autodesk with global automotive enterprises. Today, Ye is the founder and CEO of EverCurrent, an AI-native platform that makes the “small miracles” of hardware development repeatable by turning scattered knowledge into shared clarity.
