Ty Sorensen is a Associate Data Engineer and Incoming Platform Engineer at BENlabs at BENlabs. Colleagues describe him as "Ty was an intern on the ML Platform team at BENlabs. I was impressed with the effort he made to onboard quickly--and he did. He's personable and had a solid foundation of often overlooked SWE skills like monitoring, permissions management, CI/CD, testing, code quality, etc. We had him jump right into a few difficult topics: writing Infrastructure as Code for AWS, and then testing it (which is a hard problem in software engineering). He automated the creation of a NewRelic dashboard for all of our ML services. In the process of this, he took some online courses outside of work. He took the initiative to take online courses to upskill with minimal burden to our team which I greatly appreciated. This was a year ago. Ty never slowed down his rate of learning and has become a well-rounded engineer. 10/10 would recommend working with Ty. I'll miss working with him and I hope we get the chance to again." and "Ty has been a fantastic intern to work with. He is a go-getter and eager to learn. Ty happily took on every project and task we put him on, often with little to no supervision. Ty is a hard worker who is eager to help in any way he can. He has worked very well with the team here at BEN, and I highly recommend Ty!"
