6 rolesCo-Founder at A DayMay 2025 – Present
New York, NY
- Architected a production-grade MVVM application with SwiftData and latest SwiftUI features, decoupling the service layer to ensure strict separation of concerns across 7 interconnected data models and 60+ source files.

- Established a CI/CD pipeline on Xcode Cloud with Swift Testing, implementing 700+ unit and integration tests across ViewModels and data flows.
Course Assistant at New York UniversityJanuary 2026 – May 2026
Brooklyn, NY · Part-time
- Built a 5-microservice ML safeguard lab (FastAPI, Docker Compose) routing requests through two custom MobileNetV2 guard models and a Food11 classifier via short-circuit logic; generated synthetic edge-case data and benchmarked median/p95/p99 inference latency to quantify the cost of each safety layer.
- Reviewed end-to-end MLOps systems from 30 teams (110 students) on Chameleon Cloud across design, code, and live demos, assessing them against production criteria: experiment tracking, automated retraining, drift monitoring, secrets hygiene, and container reproducibility; delivered structured feedback that teams used to remediate issues such as data leakage and shortcut/proxy learning.
Data Science Intern at Micron TechnologyJuly 2025 – August 2025
Taoyuan, Taiwan · Internship
- Architected a production-scale Python pipeline and self-serve Streamlit app over 33GB of bi-weekly fab-dispatch logs, surfacing key scheduling drivers via an explainable LightGBM/SHAP model for reproducible, evidence-based tuning adopted across teams.
- Engineered repo-documentation tools for an enterprise application with over one million lines of code using Prompt Engineering and sub-task agents; cut token usage 10x and projected ~3x gain in developer efficiency.
Software Developer at CARITY AIMay 2024 – August 2024
Ontario, Canada · Full-time
- Automated CI/CD for an LLM-based product by containerizing 4 microservices on AWS ECS with GitHub Actions, reducing infrastructure costs by 40% and cutting deployment time by 70%.
- Delivered a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) proof-of-concept showing a potential 5x token-usage reduction, shaping the team's cost-optimization roadmap.
Software Engineer at MoBagelJanuary 2023 – July 2023
Taichung, Taiwan · Full-time
- Engineered a full-stack material management system for the Taiwan Water Corporation (national utility, 7M+ households), migrating its legacy Java application to automate inventory and budgeting over millions of historical records.
- Introduced GitFlow and an Agile workflow that scaled the engineering process as the team tripled from 10 to 30, enabling a smooth transition recognized by the supervising manager.
- Discovered and reported critical security flaws, including SQL-injection vectors and a publicly exposed, unauthenticated test database that risked a large-scale breach of decades of records.
Software Engineering Intern at Mindtronic AIJune 2022 – September 2022
Taipei, Taiwan · Internship
- Rebuilt the entire backend in Go from a legacy Node.js service, owning 53 RESTful APIs end to end (design, implementation, and SQL-injection hardening) while reliably processing 480K+ entries weekly.
04 /Projects
9 selectedNYU MarketplaceSeptember 2025 – December 2025
Practical Software Engineering, NYU · New York, NY
- Architected a CI/CD pipeline on Travis CI and AWS Elastic Beanstalk with strict merge gates (linting, 85%+ test coverage), automating deployment on every approved PR.
- Built RESTful and real-time WebSocket APIs with Django 5 and Channels, and reviewed all team PRs for system design and code quality.
- Advised by Professor Gennadiy Civil (Adjunct; Senior Engineering Manager at Google).
Privacy‑First AI Smart Lamp for Ephemeral Night Conversations - OblivilightJuly 2025 – August 2025
OpenHCI'25 · Taipei, Taiwan
- Led a user-centric design process from research to prototype, identifying key user needs for tangible, privacy-preserving "forgetting mechanisms" in AI companions through 11 user interviews and secondary research.
- Architected a full-stack proof-of-concept integrating an LLM for conversation, emotion analysis, and a multi-modal interface with voice (Whisper/TTS) and gesture controls.
- Designed an interaction model that visualizes emotional sentiment as colored light and externalizes digital conversations into physical artifacts via a thermal printer, addressing AI data permanence anxiety.
- Won the Best Demo Award at OpenHCI'25 and was the sole project selected for presentation at the subsequent TAICHI'25 conference.
Real‑Time Plant Health & Mood Visualization - Loud Plants in Your AreaFebruary 2025 – May 2025
NYU · New York, NY
- Led the development of an iOS application that translates plant bio-acoustic signals into real-time AR visualizations, defining the project vision and architecting the full stack.
- Engineered a custom machine learning pipeline based on academic research to classify plant health. Independently implemented a deep scattering network (ScatNet with Morlet wavelets), extracted Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs), and trained a high-performing SVM classifier for signal analysis.
- Developed a fully functional AR prototype using Swift, RealityKit, and Reality Composer Pro. Owned the entire iOS application development, building custom animated UI overlays that rendered dynamic plant statuses based on live data from the ML pipeline.
- Validated the project's core hypothesis through a user evaluation study that demonstrated the AR interface significantly increased user-plant interaction and emotional connection (mean score increase from 1.67 to 5.33, p=0.018).
Taigi (Taiwanese-Hokkien) Medical Advising LLMMarch 2025 – May 2025
