## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ Arch
Jan 2023 – Present | New York, United States

### Data Science Intern @ Activision Blizzard King
Jan 2023 – Jan 2023 | San Francisco, California, United States

### Research Assistant @ Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences
Jan 2023 – Jan 2023 | Austin, Texas, United States
- Building a novel graph database-based semantic search engine using Neo4J and Python to create a platform to search for experiments based on the published data generated on Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) supercomputers. This improves the reach of experiments and reduces duplicated effort in terms of time and resources.
- Developing a CI/CD system that leverages Python and the Kubernetes computing clusters to perform continuous integration on applications deployed on TACC. (tuitus-ci.github.io)
- Developing a differentiable Material Point Method (MPM) simulation library in Python using JAX to use MPM models in neural networks.
- GSoC '23 mentor for diffmpm.

### Engineering Intern @ Twitter
Jan 2022 – Jan 2022 | San Francisco, California, United States
● Created a Looker dashboard to monitor the health of various business metrics and data preprocessing pipeline setup and improved the working timelines by reducing monthly effort by 20%.
● Drove cross-functional team discussion and analysis of different features' importance on ML model performance, and changed the decision by showing a 2% metric improvement.
● Created a Looker dashboard to collate data for different key metrics for the project, and monitor the overall daily performance of the product.

### Research Assistant @ Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences
