What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a new grad Software Engineer or ML Engineer role in Singapore.

At the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS), I engineered data pipelines for solar cell characterization and built Python dashboards to analyze solar module datasets. I also connected measurement hardware outputs to cloud-based analysis workflows.

On my Solar Irradiance Forecasting project, I built a probabilistic model combining weather data with Himawari-8/9 satellite imagery. I redesigned the model after diagnosing overfitting and deployed a daily forecast-and-verify pipeline.

At Samcom Electronics LLC, I redesigned the company website and shipped two internal web portals. I also built a React-based resume generator at Microsoft Innovators Club, VIT, adopted by more than 100 students.
