Intern Software Engineer specializing in LLM security and automation

Plano, TX0y exp

“Built and shipped a production LLM safety-testing agent using Gemini with support for running multiple LLMs, focused on fast (<5s) execution and clear failure-mode reporting. The tool helps smaller companies evaluate whether their LLMs respond safely by grading outputs and tuning scoring consistency.”

“Built an end-to-end agentic population health strategy copilot for healthcare leadership, turning broad chronic disease questions into structured, evidence-backed strategy briefs. Stands out for combining healthcare domain knowledge with production-grade GenAI implementation, including LangGraph orchestration, Databricks/MLflow deployment, human review, and quality gates focused on citations, metrics, risks, and safety.”

“Robotics software engineer who built a ROS 2 Humble autonomous hospital-equipment detection/localization robot end-to-end in Gazebo (custom worlds/models, Nav2 waypoint navigation, YOLOv8n perception, TF2-based depth fusion) and solved real-time integration issues via multithreading and QoS tuning. Also implemented and tuned an MPPI controller to enable smooth reverse parking on an OpenPodCarV2 platform, including real-world reverse engineering and hardware/software debugging.”

“Master’s thesis engineer who built and deployed a continuous real-time perception + state estimation + control loop under tight latency constraints, owning both software architecture and hardware integration. Strong ROS 2 fundamentals with a systems-first approach—stabilizes robotic behavior by instrumenting, logging/replaying real data, and fixing timing/synchronization issues rather than treating failures as purely algorithmic.”

“Robotics engineer focused on simulation, modeling, and control, with hands-on sim-to-real experience from a soft, foldable “grasshopper” robot where friction/contact physics and servo dynamics drove real-world performance gaps. Built a ROS 2 voice-operated TurtleBot system integrating YOLOv5 + stereo depth for object picking with an attached arm, and debugged AMCL/SLAM to cut localization error from 10–13 cm to ~5 cm. Currently developing a quadruped in MuJoCo with a 3-layer control stack (RL + MPC + PD) and an RL training pipeline in JAX ahead of hardware.”

“Master’s capstone at Stevens: conceptualized and helped build a cross-platform assistive mobile app for visually impaired users with currency detection (ML), voice-driven AI chatbot (OpenRouter), and a guided navigation video-call feature using a shared room code. Personally implemented Firebase login/sign-in, facial-recognition login, video calling, chatbot integration, and led integration/testing across the full app.”
