Now

I’m a New Grad working as an SRE at NVIDIA. I earned my Master’s degree in Computer Science from Santa Clara University. I’m particularly interested in cloud computing and backend development.

What I claim to know

These are the Technologies/Tools I am proficient in, just some things off the top of my head that I have used in either my personal projects or in my work ex at NVIDIA or JCI:

• Python
• Golang
• Amazon Web Services (AWS)
• Micorosft Azure
• GitLab
• Kubernetes (K8s)
• Swift
  • SwiftUI
  • UIKit
• Jenkins
• Linux

What I want to know

I’ve been lucky enough to work on a lot of cool stuff so far, but there’s still a bunch I’m excited to explore. One area I keep coming back to is cloud computing—there’s just so much innovation and depth in that space. Here’s a list of things I’d love to work on. This list isn’t exhaustive, and if you ask me tomorrow, I’ll probably have even more ideas!

• Operating at hyperscale (think IAM-level traffic — 500M+ req/s kinda stuff 👀)
• Chaos Engineering
• Cloud Security
• System Software Development
• Edge Computing

What I want to be

If internships don’t count as work experience, then I pretty much have none right now, lol. A lot of times in interviews, when asked what my career goals are, I describe my love for programming. For me, even Leetcode is fun to some extent, though it does get a bit much when you’re studying for interviews like I am 🙃.

Anyway, ideally, I would live in the Bay Area, and this is what I envision for my career trajectory. Fingers crossed XDD.

• SRE Intern at JCI (first internship)
• SRE Intern @ NVIDIA
• SDE 1 @ NVIDIA <— we are here (first job!!)
• SDE 2
• Senior SE
• Staff Software Engineer
• Distinguished SE
• Principal Technology Architect
• CTO (lol)
