During my internship at Palantir, I had the opportunity to work across the entire technology stack. My responsibilities included ensuring that both the backend and frontend components were aligned to bring new features to life. I was fortunate to be part of a fantastic team, and my work primarily focused on AI-related projects within the company. Here are some key achievements from my time there:- Led AIP Assist Development: I spearheaded the development of AIP Assist by creating specialized plugins and selection logic. Leveraging proprietary language models, we supported multi-step queries and achieved a remarkable 62% increase in usage.- Semantic Search Tool: I developed an internal tool to address developer queries. By leveraging a sharded codebase, we performed semantic searches and provided relevant results as context, all while optimizing for token limits.- User Permissions Optimization: I devised migration strategies to break down user permissions into smaller, granular operations. This approach allowed for better access control and view-only modes.- Java Service Optimization: I optimized Java services by implementing caching, proxy objects, and multi-threading. As a result, we reduced the p99 latency for orchestration endpoints by over 41%.- Efficient Frontend Engineering: Using TypeScript and React, I engineered performant, lightweight, and modular pages. Dynamic imports helped reduce initial load times by 14% and enhanced user state rendering.

During my tenure at Niricson Software Inc, I initially focused on full-stack feature engineering. Over time, I took on additional responsibilities, delving into various aspects of our software development. Here are some notable achievements from my experience there:- Automated Machine Learning Workflow: I developed a solution to dynamically reserve, utilize, and terminate cloud GPU instances for machine learning workloads. This optimization resulted in annual savings of $17,000.- Geospatial Vector Data Format: I introduced a new geospatial vector data format for AWS Document DB. This format accommodated over 50% more data points while significantly reducing loading time.- Pipeline Optimization: I meticulously optimized the time complexity of existing and new algorithms. As a result, users could visualize and customize more than 500,000 data points dynamically.- REST API Endpoints: Leveraging modern web frameworks, I designed and created REST API endpoints, adhering to object-oriented principles and various software design patterns.
