Software Engineer

June 2026 - Present

I design end-to-end and branch-coverage test suites for a constraint-programming scheduling engine, which surfaced 80+ latent solver defects and raised coverage across critical modules from 63% to 97%.

From that work I've shipped 50+ solver-correctness fixes using test-driven development and root-cause analysis, sequencing changes from low to high risk so production stayed stable throughout.

Part-Time Software Engineer

June 2023 - September 2024

I raised throughput on scheduling-optimization workloads by 50%+ by writing multithreaded C++/Python modules on top of Google OR-Tools, which handled constraint solving and model queueing.

I also built the desktop side of the product: a cross-platform Node.js service that queues, executes, and monitors AI inference tasks, an Electron.js auth client backed by Supabase, an auto-updater, and Windows/macOS installers tying them together. GitHub Actions CI/CD automated the builds and cut 20+ minutes off every release.

Research Scientist Intern

June 2023 - November 2023

I built an internal Q&A assistant in Python on the GPT-4 API that answered employee HR policy questions, cutting repetitive policy lookups by 15%.

Before building it I compared three deployment approaches: prompt engineering, fine-tuning feasibility, and how the model handled English and Mandarin. I recommended a prompt/RAG prototype so we could iterate faster and maintain less.

CS Curriculum Developer & Instructor

May 2022 - May 2023

I designed and taught 5 courses in computer science, contributing to a 10%+ increase in student enrollment:

• Intro to Pygame, taught in Summer 2022
• Advanced Pygame, taught in Summer 2022
• Bronze level USA Computing Olympiad logic and algorithms course, taught in the 2022-2023 school year

All courses can be found here

Intern Data Scientist

Jan 2022 - May 2022

I built the company's first learning-visibility system: a JavaScript xAPI event pipeline feeding Watershed's Learning Record Store, capturing 20+ activity events so instructors could see student engagement across every course offering.

I then wrote Python analysis tools that scored student progress and open-ended response accuracy, removing 3+ hours of manual course review each week.

Gameplay Programmer Intern

Oct 2022 - March 2023

On an unreleased combat racing game built in Unity and C#, I owned the weapon aiming system and UI controllers, working with Unity's then-new Input System for gamepad support and UIToolkit for the interface layer.

I cut projectile performance overhead by 50% by replacing per-shot instantiation with object pooling for reusable weapon systems, profiled against both PC and Xbox targets.
