Hey,

My name is Bowen Cheng, and I’m an IT Manager I at the Los Angeles County Probation Department. Based in Southern California, I lead teams that build and support the systems powering one of the largest probation departments in the country. With a background in software development and cloud infrastructure, I’ve helped modernize everything from staff scheduling platforms to emergency alert systems — making our tools faster, smarter, and more secure.

I’m deeply invested in public service and believe technology should make life easier for both staff and the people we serve. Whether I’m guiding a team through a major system rewrite, designing a scalable DevOps strategy, or mentoring future leaders, I focus on building solutions that actually solve problems.

My work blends hands-on technical skill with strategic thinking, and I’m always looking ahead — finding new ways to streamline operations, foster collaboration, and deliver meaningful impact at scale. I’m excited about what’s next and ready to take on broader leadership opportunities that help move LA County forward.
