Experience
Member of Technical Staff Intern
Tensormesh
March 2026 - Present
Foster City, CA
- Tensormesh, the team behind LMCache, helps enterprises cut GPU costs by offloading KV caches to external storage for reusability during inference.
- LMCache is used by teams at Nvidia, Google, Redis, AWS, Red Hat, Cohere, and more.
Open Source Contributor
Meta
October 2025 - October 2025
Remote
- Contributed to Pyrefly, Meta's high-performance Python type checker and language server written in Rust.
- Refactored the error summarization subsystem by enforcing standard naming conventions across module definitions and import paths.
Software Engineer Intern
Quantum Rings
June 2025 - August 2025
Chicago, IL
- Delivered 19 PRs, 43 contributions, and 15 completed GitHub issues across the internship, adding ~15K LOC and removing ~3.6K LOC while reviewing code and driving schema refactors.
- Migrated execution data from the user entity to a dedicated relational table with FKs, modularizing schema and ensuring test suite stability with no performance regression.
- Implemented a telemetry aggregation background worker (AWS SQS + TypeORM) to asynchronously roll up user execution activity, improving scalability and simplifying downstream analytics queries.
- Designed and deployed queue-driven execution processing to decouple heavy telemetry operations from the API, reducing request latency and enabling horizontal scaling.
- Built full-stack admin analytics dashboards with NestJS, Next.js, and Recharts, integrating SQL time-bucket aggregation and timezone-safe filtering to track user growth, active usage, and execution volume.
Projects
Hostess
Multi-service deployment platform, positioned as Docker Compose for production. You declare services in hostess.yml, run hostess deploy, and the Go CLI ships to managed Kubernetes with generated manifests plus routing, secrets, environments, scheduled backups, custom domains, and a Studio dashboard — without hand-maintaining YAML sprawl.
Redis Operator
A Kubernetes operator for Redis, inspired by CloudNativePG. Supports standalone, sentinel, and cluster modes with direct pod and PVC management. Implements a fencing-first failover strategy to prevent split-brain scenarios and ensure data consistency during node failures.
AutoMoE
A modular, multi-task self-driving system based on a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture. Uses specialized neural networks for specific perception tasks and a gating network to combine their outputs, aiming for a more modular, interpretable, and efficient model for navigating complex environments.
Launchpad
AI-powered student–startup matching platform. Uses pgvector for semantic search across student profiles and startup listings, with async BullMQ scoring pipelines that rank candidates by fit. Helps early-stage startups find talent and students discover opportunities aligned with their skills.
Matchbox
An AI-powered research matching platform that connects university students with labs using semantic search and LLM-based fit scoring. Streamlines the application process with a centralized portal, replacing fragmented email workflows with automated candidate discovery, resume parsing, and compatibility ranking.
