Experience
Software Engineer
Redmond, WA
- Own full-lifecycle ASR model customization for enterprise customers — directing domain-specific data curation, model training, experimental evaluation, and production deployment to meet customer accuracy requirements
- Architected an ASR Diagnostics AI Agent in C# using Semantic Kernel that autonomously reproduces reported speech recognition failures, classifies error patterns, and surfaces targeted fix recommendations — replacing manual triage with automated diagnosis
- Engineered an Azure AI Search–powered entity extraction pipeline that auto-generates domain-specific phrase lists and curated training corpora, accelerating Speech-to-Text model adaptation for new customer verticals
- Collaborate cross-functionally with enterprise customers to define accuracy benchmarks, interpret model evaluation metrics, and iterate on recognition improvements — bridging technical implementation with measurable business outcomes
Software Engineering Intern
Seattle, WA
- Engineered an automated test migration framework in Java that parses a proprietary UI scripting DSL and deterministically generates equivalent Java test code with full coverage parity
- Designed the end-to-end translation pipeline — spanning lexical parsing, semantic mapping, and test file auto-generation — handling edge cases and preserving test behavior across migrated files
- Achieved 80% automation coverage across all migration cases, eliminating weeks of manual engineering effort and unblocking team-wide test infrastructure modernization
Software Engineering Intern (STEP)
Los Angeles, CA
- Built a real-time server monitoring dashboard for the Google Drive Restore team, surfacing live server health, error rates, and process latency to enable proactive incident detection
- Designed and implemented the full observability pipeline in Kotlin, Java, and SQL — from live metrics ingestion and storage to dashboard visualization of critical internal system state
- Drove end-to-end delivery alongside an intern partner — owning requirements definition, data modeling, UI implementation, and testing within a 12-week cycle
Meta University Engineering Intern
Seattle, WA
- Built and shipped a full-featured peer-to-peer Android marketplace for used textbook exchange — supporting real-time listings, in-app messaging, and map-based seller discovery
- Integrated Google Books API, Google Maps API, Firebase, and Back4App to power geolocation-based discovery, real-time chat, and persistent cross-session data storage
- Implemented MVVM architecture with fragment navigation, API pagination, and real-time data sync — delivering a production-quality Android app with full lifecycle management in Java
