Interpreter Mode (IM): A google assistant feature where users can converse with another individual from a different language via live translations. https://blog.google/products/assistant/interpreter-mode-brings-real-time-translation-your-phone/
Designed and developed landscape mode for Interpreter Mode, which included decisions on trade‐offs, design decisions for different surfaces, and flag guarding.
Led the launch and organized bug bashes for landscape mode.
Collaborated with team members to design possible feature ideas for Interpreter Mode using LLMs.
Dual Screen Interpreter Mode: A revamped Interpreter mode experience on the Pixel Fold, which takes advantage of the concurrent triple screen setup to provide streamlined live translations between individuals. https://blog.google/products/pixel/feature-drop-fall-2023/
Designed, developed and successfully launched the Dual Screen Interpreter Mode for the Pixel Fold.
Led the design and launch of the inner screen for Dual Screen Interpreter Mode.
Collaborated with cross-functional teams across different time-zones.
Helped brainstorm and consult on the marketing demo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veN7yMLhYVs&ab_channel=MadebyGoogle
Awarded a patent.
Interpreter Mode Platform Migration: A major platform update for Interpreter Mode to improve quality.
Led the design and development of a complex internal service end-to-end in order to decouple the handling of assistant query intents from language resolution.
Helped teammates ramp up on the new service through design docs and meetings.
Collaborated with different teams to sync development and launch timelines.
Investigated and analyzed large scale data to find the root causes of approximately 18% missing migration traffic.
