Work Experience

Connectify, Inc.

Software Engineering Intern — June 2026 – August 2026

  • Researched and stress-tested the SRT streaming protocol for speed and reliability on proprietary OpenWRT hardware ahead of a customer-facing release, under a compressed deadline
  • Developed and released an internal fork of ModemManager to improve IPC between the modem stack and VPN daemon

Connectify, Inc.

Systems Engineering Intern — June 2025 – August 2025

  • Assessed and implemented FinOps infrastructure improvements (server rightsizing), generating $12,000 in realized annual savings
  • Modified OpenWRT firmware for proprietary router hardware, integrating a VPN application across the LAN and building a lightweight hardware-monitoring and anomaly-detection daemon in C, with a web interface for integration with OpenWRT LuCI
  • Prototyped an AI anomaly-detection system for network attacks using a lightweight autoencoder architecture, achieving 98% accuracy for real-time CPU inference on embedded hardware, within its compute and memory budget

University of Pennsylvania, Data Center Research Group

Research Assistant — January 2025 – December 2025

  • Analyzed data center cooling techniques against power and water consumption, combining computer science and mechanical-engineering training to model cooling requirements across climates and resource constraints

Connectify, Inc.

Full-Stack Intern — May 2022 – June 2022

  • Redesigned backend invoicing system using the Factory Method pattern to unify sales-data collection across multiple vendor APIs; deployed company-wide
  • Maintained customer-facing invoice portal (Bootstrap, Figma), remapped API routes, and wrote unit tests and documentation to company standards
