... Software Engineer 08/21 - Present
Crypto and Digital Assets
... Software Engineer Intern 08/20 - 12/20
Designed and Developed priority-based fair-share scheduling algorithms for distributed systems at Facebook.

Enabled support for scenarios around ensuring that background, non-critical traffic doesn’t compete with production critical workloads.

Improved a generic resource isolation library/service for multi-tenant systems at Facebook.

Skills: Fair-share Scheduling, Multi-tenacy, Concurrency, C++
... Software Engineer Intern in Equities Quantitative Research 05/20 - 08/20
Conceptualized and Designed a Distributed System to pipeline large datasets to research teams. Developed prediction algorithms for financial instruments. Worked in Equities Quantitative Research.

Skills: Distributed Systems, Algorithms, ETL framework (Extract/Transform/Load)
... Head Teaching Assistant for Parallel and Sequential Algorithms [15-210] 08/19 - 05/20
Managing course staff of 20 teaching assistants, working directly with professors in order to ensure students learn as much as possible from the course. Designing course policies and conducting hiring interviews.

Teaching 30-student weekly recitations and holding office hours and review sessions. Programs are written in SML, a functional programming language.

Topics: Divide-and-conquer, Graph contraction, Greedy algorithms, Hashing, Sparse matrices, Balanced Trees, and Dynamic programming
