Google Summer of Code Logo

Google Summer of Code

Software Developer at NumFOCUS

May 2026 – Present

  • Designed a zero-downtime migration strategy that intercepts legacy API calls and routes them to a new Builder backend with targeted FutureWarning deprecations, cutting irrelevant parameters by 70%.
  • Built a streaming-ready data preprocessing seam by decoupling z-score computation from model instantiation, reducing initialization memory complexity from O(N) to O(1), enabling out-of-core training for massive datasets.
  • Overhauled the CI pipeline with 30+ rewritten unit tests featuring rigorous tensor shape assertions and neural network wiring validation, ensuring stability across 60+ test runs per commit.

Contributor at Qiskit Advocate Mentorship Program

October 2025 – January 2026

  • Built QuDET, a Python framework that consolidates ML pipeline infrastructure into reusable, configurable modules, reducing per-pipeline setup overhead by 89% and standardizing deployment across teams.
  • Developed a pluggable data governance layer with AES-128 encryption, role-based access control, automated audit logging, and statistical drift detection, reducing governance-related infrastructure code by 87%.

Amazon

Mentee at Machine Learning Summer School

August 2025 – Sept 2025

  • Selected among the top 3,000 candidates out of over 134,000+ applicants to receive a month-long mentorship from Amazon scientists on Machine Learning.
  • Gained specialized knowledge in modern AI technologies, including Generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), and Deep Neural Networks.

First internal integration of the new API

The primary goal of this phase was to replace the old, opaque posterior_nn() and likelihood_nn() factory closures with something typed, inspectable, and much more robust. To solve this, I introduced the DensityEstimatorBuilder ....
