During my internship with Elevance Health, I worked on the Service Experience Engineering and Platform Services (SEEPS) team, which manages hundreds of backend services focuses on API integration. I upgraded a data-fetching service, used over 500,000 times a month, from Java 1.8 to Java 17, significantly enhancing performance, security, and maintainability. This project resulted in a 12% increase in efficiency and saved nearly 14 hours of company time per month. Through this experience, I gained expertise in stored procedures, dynamic routing, Apigee, containers, databases, and API layers.In addition to technical work, I met many new people and gained substantial experience developing in a corporate environment. I listened to inspiring speakers at intern events and was exposed to a variety of different fields. Engaging with senior engineers and leadership provided valuable mentorship and insights into AI, large language models (LLMs), and backend development. This internship was a comprehensive learning experience that broadened my professional skills and network.Based on my summer performance, I was awarded an opportunity to extend my internship throughout the school year. I am still continuing my work with the SEEPS team and have been focused on debugging our services as well as diving into end-to-end API analyzation to create documentation and UML diagrams.

At VerbaAI, I was an active participant in a multidisciplinary team that contributed to the flagship launch of VerbaAI, a global speech aggregation platform. Working alongside a dedicated team of over 10 engineers, my role was diverse, involving both front-end and back-end responsibilities.My contributions extended beyond coding. I aided in the design of user-centric features like a bookmarking system and a group creation utility, enhancing the user experience by making it more intuitive and functional. These features contributed to a platform that not only attracted but also engaged its user base, enabling users to save and categorize speeches with ease.One of my core responsibilities was ensuring the scalability and stability of the platform. I actively engaged in the testing and optimization processes, focusing on readiness for a growing number of users and the platform's long-term sustainability.On direction from our team leader, I took the initiative to research web crawlers and robots.txt. The findings from this research were instrumental in creating a future plan aimed at bolstering our platform's defenses against unauthorized data scraping.Overall, my time at VerbaAI was an enriching experience that provided me the opportunity to work on a project that sits at the intersection of technology and societal impact, all while broadening my software engineering skill set.
