Software engineerbuilding reliable systems from test automationat Uber to AI evaluation frameworks.

Currently studying at Khoury College of Computer Sciences. Previously a software test automation engineer at EPAM, embedded with Uber's Fares team. Interested in the gap between what models claim and how they behave in production.

01About

A quiet obsession with systems that don't break.

I spent the year before grad school writing Go for Uber's Fares team — automating test suites, hunting logical errors in high-scale services, and building evaluation frameworks for AI models that needed structured, actionable feedback rather than vibes.

Now I'm at Northeastern, splitting time between programming language design, database internals, and the broader question of how to evaluate intelligent systems honestly. Looking for co-op work where careful engineering and AI infrastructure intersect.

02Experience

Where I've shipped.

Jul 2024 — Dec 2025
Hyderabad, India

EPAM Systems — Client: Uber, Inc.

Junior Software Test Automation Engineer
  • Automated and debugged complex test cases in Go for Uber's Fares team, evaluating production codebases and surfacing logical errors across high-scale services.
  • Migrated legacy test suites to Cucumber and TestNG, improving CI/CD integration and cutting flaky failures across regression runs.
  • Built automated evaluation frameworks to benchmark AI models, delivering structured, actionable feedback to cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Worked directly with developers to resolve test failures and lift code coverage — clear technical communication and patient root-cause analysis.

What I'm building next.

Deploying soon

The work, in transit.

Project repositories are being prepared for deployment. Once live, they'll land here with case studies, code, and the reasoning behind each decision.
