Experience

JPMorganChase - Software Engineer

I joined JPMorganChase in 2023 as an intern under JPMorgan Payments, where I worked as a frontend engineer, developing internal applications for 250+ teams with a focus on performance.

Currently, I am a software engineer in Sales & Research, building real-time desktop applications that leverage LLMs and data to enhance workflows. My primary focus is creating performant and scalable desktop applications.

Key Achievements

• Developed a client-side search engine capable of querying over 50,000 unique items in 20ms.
• Reduced monorepo CI/CD pipeline time by 3x through caching, parallelization, dynamic resource allocation, and smart build strategies—saving 600+ minutes per developer per week and cutting AWS costs by hundreds of dollars per month.
• Implemented LLM insights and analytics tracking for 1,000+ users.
• Led a team of 6 on an internal project that won best-in-class for technical excellence, design, and client success.

Unison - Founder

Before I returned to JPMorganChase, I founded Unison, a application that enabled users to manage and maintain their connections in a natural way, saving time, effort, and resources. A Rolodex designed for the modern age.

Our product was a desktop/mobile application that allowed users to quickly see relevant actions to take with their connections, presented in natural language. Additionally, relationship and interaction data were imported automatically from social platforms (LinkedIn, X, email, etc.). Our final feature was a tree visualization that allowed users to see relationships between their connections and potential connections.

While the product was not successful, we grew as a team, acquired funding, joined the OwlSpark/RedLabs accelerator, met with Y Combinator, built a strong network, and learned a lot.

Shoutout to my founding team Bryant Le, Mihir Sahu, Christian Ohanaja, and Tariq Achor Zyad for their hard work and dedication to the product.
