Experience

Experience across semiconductor, aerospace, and AI.

Signal Integrity Engineer

Siemens EDA

  • Developed an automated signal integrity and power integrity validation system using Python Tkinter GUI.
  • Automated DRC for differential pairs using Python/Linux tooling, resulting in ~90% reduction in review time.

Product Development Engineer

Intel Corporation

  • Engineered a synthetic data pipeline using Python, generating 10,000+ test graphs, enabling scalable CNN training.
  • Developed an 8-layer CNN architecture using Python (PyTorch, SciPy, L2 regularization), achieving 92.43% accuracy.

Data Scientist Researcher

USAA

  • Analyzed customer data using Python with K-means and NLP, improving satisfaction by 10% through insights.
  • Conducted EDA on thousands of call transcripts with clustering algorithms, reducing friction scores by 15%.

Electrical Engineer

Honeywell Aerospace

  • Automated avionics workflows using Python and JIRA, reducing test cycle time by 50% through optimization.
  • Developed a data pipeline using Python on NVIDIA JETSON, reducing latency by 1s for signal communications on UAVs.

Teaching Assistant & Grader

Arizona State University

  • Delivered instruction across 20+ STEM courses using workshops and labs, resulting in improved student performance.
  • Designed and revised course materials and syllabi, resulting in clearer learning outcomes.

Tutoring Assistant

Mountain Pointe High School

  • Supported classroom instruction using guided problem-solving, resulting in stronger foundational skills.
  • Mentored students individually, resulting in increased academic confidence.
