Entry-level software engineer and Rutgers CS grad who'd rather ship a working product end to end than talk about one. I build the full thing: data model, backend, and the interface on top.
An AI-first desktop video editor for content creators, pairing a familiar timeline with automated editing and analytics tools. It's a distributed system: Electron/React for the UI, Rust for the media engine, Python orchestrating AI features over gRPC. I own the timeline and analytics systems end to end, and led the move to a separate Rust engine once export started competing with the UI thread.
An automated trading system for BTC/ETH perpetual futures that places symmetric limit orders around a moving price anchor to profit from mean reversion. Runs as six coordinated services over WebSockets, with a server-side stop-loss acting as a dead-man's switch. Core modules hold 97%+ test coverage and ran weeks of testnet validation before touching real capital.
A full-stack flight search and booking app built with classmates for a database systems course. I designed the normalized schema and wrote the JDBC layer connecting it to the JSP frontend, with separate login flows for customers, a rep, and an admin.

Data Annotation
Quantitative Analyst
Tested and benchmarked LLM performance across RAG pipelines, API integrations, and MCP servers for clients including Anthropic and xAI, tracking down failure modes and writing the regression tests to catch them. Built prompt engineering frameworks that made outputs ~20% more reproducible and cut reasoning errors by close to 30% in cross-model benchmarking.
I'm looking for my first full-time engineering role. If any of the projects above look like the kind of problem you're working on, I'd like to hear about it.
