Ideally I’d like a remote job somewhere in the field of machine learning, since I hope to make use of this in the thesis I decide on for my PhD. I’d also be happy to further develop my programming skills (frontend or backend).

Nanotechnology Engineering (BASc). Currently looking for remote jobs before September 2025.
What I'm looking for
A detail-oriented researcher and engineer with a strong foundation in data analysis, machine learning, and structured data annotation stemming from past academic and work experiences. With a BASc in Nanotechnology Engineering and ongoing PhD studies in Chemical Engineering (hoping to integrate machine learning), I have hands-on experience in processing and labeling large datasets (e.g., 105,000+ EMG data points for gesture classification) and designing systematic protocols for data organization. My work at the National Research Council as a Research Assistant involved creating custom labeling systems for material samples, while my role at BTNX included formatting sensitive data in JSON for secure storage and working in C # using Xamarin Forms and Razor Pages. I have also authored technical documentation (SOPs, reports - from positions at the National Research Council and Intlvac Incorporated as a Junior Product Development Technician) and validated model accuracy using tools like confusion matrices and cross-validation, demonstrating meticulous attention to detail (as part of a machine learning project during my undergrad). I am proficient in Python, MATLAB, and basic JavaScript, and have demonstrated remote collaboration skills during roles at Microsoft and BTNX. Lastly, I'd also like to mention that I have taken Spanish and am experienced with it at the high school level, and I'm currently at the HSK 2 level in Mandarin (with the HSK 3 level in progress).
