Technical Engineer Intern
- Elevated software quality through automated integration testing by developing Python and Bash programs for rigorous testing procedures; reducing manual testing by 10 hrs/week
- Enhanced software delivery processes by developing CI/CD pipelines in Azure DevOps with continuous inspection tools
- Transformed cloud architecture efficiency by orchestrating Kubernetes clusters alongside Docker containers, significantly lowering typical application rollout durations on AWS and Azure
- Performed cloud penetration tests detecting critical server-side vulnerabilities affecting user dashboards and databases
- Configured and managed dozens of testing and production on-site virtual machines with VMware ESXi ensuring operational stability and availability
- Diagnosed and resolved technical issues for more than 50 clients via Webex calls, ranging from basic installation to LDAP and AD issues
- Researched over a dozen AI algorithms and machine learning techniques to formulate clang-based compiler-optimisation challenges into an AI-driven solution
- Designed and programmed a metaheuristic approach using simulated annealing to optimise compiler flags, achieving a 20% improvement in program execution speed
- Authored a 60-page technical research paper demonstrating results on par with industry-leading studies in the field
Venture Capital Portfolio Management Web Application | Django & React JS
- Led a 6-member team to deliver a portfolio management product for the client, Telefonica's Wayra, within 2 months
- Adopted a hybrid Waterfall-Agile development model and engaged in continuous communication with the client over two months, organising meetings to gather requirements and addressing emerging issues
- Integrated AirTable API for real time syncing between client databases of 1000+ records and the web application
- Engineered full database functionality: CRUD operations (search/filter/add/delete) with robust error handling
AI Agent: Job Hunter | Python
- Engineered an AI-driven job search agent using Selenium and LLM integration to autonomously navigate LinkedIn, process user CVs via PDF upload, and prioritise relevant opportunities—eliminating manual search workflows
- Created smart CV parser for structured data extraction, auto-populating class variables to generate personalised profiles
- Automated navigation for job post listing and authentication — achieving end-to-end autonomy with zero intervention
Large Language Model from Scratch | Pytorch
- Implemented the complete decoder transformer with sequential Neural Networks to create GPT LLM architecture
- Tokenised input text using cl100k-base, converted tokens into vector embeddings, and applied a multi-head attention mechanism to generate decoder inputs for advanced sequence processing
- Trained the neural network using a massive 40GB open-source replication of the WebText dataset from OpenAI
- Optimised model performance through hyperparameter tuning and gradient clipping methods
