Experience

  1. Software Dev Engineer

    Amazon.com

    Applied science and engineering focus:

    • Designed and productionized data and training pipelines for code-generation agents targeting domain-specific languages, using AWS Bedrock, SageMaker, LangChain, and Python.
    • Collaborated with cross-functional engineering and science partners to improve agent tool-use workflows, retrieval quality, and evaluation coverage for production-facing code generation.
  2. Research Assistant

    Social Cognitive AI (SCAI) Lab at Johns Hopkins University

    Applied science and research focus:

    • Studied embodied assistance and spoken instruction following with theory-of-mind models, Bayesian inverse planning, and simulated/real-world robot task data.
    • Contributed to research artifacts on embodied AI and human-centered AI, including SIFToM and UnclearInstruct, advised by Prof. Tianmin Shu at Johns Hopkins University.

    Learning to Defer with an Uncertain Rejector via Conformal Prediction

    Applied science and research focus:

    • Proposed an uncertainty-aware, distribution-free post-training rejector for learning to defer, improving human-AI collaboration on object recognition and hate-speech detection tasks.
    • Developed surrogate losses and baselines for learning-to-defer experiments with Wide ResNet, human expert simulators, data augmentation, and PyTorch.
    • Built experiment pipelines for uncertainty quantification and distribution shift, including batch ensembles, SNGP, MC-Dropout, Bayesian neural networks, CIFAR-10/100 corruption tests, and GPU/HPC automation with Slurm, Shell, and Docker.

    Augmentation for Distribution Drift in Credit Scoring

    Applied science and research focus:

    • Proposed data augmentation algorithms with kernel density estimation to reduce distribution drift in credit scoring models, improving AUC from 0.73 to 0.85 under varying economic factors.
    • Benchmarked gradient boosting and neural-network credit risk models with Python, PyTorch, LightGBM, NumPy, Pandas, and matplotlib.
    • Built large-scale financial time-series datasets with Spark and SQLAlchemy across approximately 2B data points.
