Software Engineering Intern — Infrastructure Automation & Internal Tools @ University at Buffalo

About

I’m a Computer Science student at the University at Buffalo pursuing a B.S. in Computer Science with a Minor in Mathematics, expected to graduate in May 2027.Previously, I supported an $8M network infrastructure project across 90 buildings and helped save over $115,000 in hardware by analyzing switch data and identifying redundancies. Subsequently worked as an SWE intern, read more about it here: https://www.buffalo.edu/ubit/news/article.host.html/content/shared/www/ubit/news/2025/div-summer-intern.detail.html I’m especially interested in backend engineering, infrastructure tooling, automation, distributed systems, and applied AI/ML. I enjoy building reliable systems, improving workflows, and turning messy real-world data into useful software.
