Industry Experience

Amazon Web Services

Machine Learning Engineer, AWS Generative AI Innovation Center (September 2025 - Present) | Pittsburgh, PA

I lead agentic AI projects for AWS partners and customers on an interdisciplinary team of scientists, researchers, and engineers. Recently I built an end-to-end platform that lets teams create, deploy, govern, and audit AI agents in one place. I also design protocols for running agents securely on AWS and build tooling that automates security and compliance assessments.

Software Development Engineer II, AWS AI (April 2024 - September 2025) | Seattle, WA

I was a feature lead in the AWS Bedrock Generative AI Services organization, working across Amazon Transcribe, Amazon Bedrock Data Automation, and Amazon Translate. I worked on speech recognition models that made multilingual transcription faster and more accurate, designed a new service architecture for audio and video understanding in agentic workflows, and served as technical lead for Amazon Translate, partnering with 30+ enterprise customers.

Software Development Engineer, AWS Lambda / AWS App Runner / AWS Elastic Beanstalk (August 2022 - April 2024) | Seattle, WA

I worked on AWS Elastic Beanstalk and AWS App Runner across internal, open source, and customer projects. I led the integration of AWS WAF into the Copilot CLI so App Runner applications ship secure by default, built an automated testing suite for the App Runner console, and helped launch App Runner in three new regions.

Teradata

Software Engineer Intern (July 2021 - September 2021) | San Diego, CA

I restructured how large objects are stored across Teradata database systems in the TeraCloud architecture, making computation about 50% more efficient. I also built wrapper functions used across Teradata systems to improve security, scalability, and SQL integration.
