Experience
Internship — NVIDIA, Santa Clara, CA, USA (May - Aug 2025)
Technical Product Management for CUDA. Surveyed 39 developers from 25 teams in the CUDA software stack to understand their experiences and pain points with a new system. Defined distributed developers personas and identified key areas of focus for future product development. This project won the NVIDIA Intern Showcase Competition 2025.

Internship — RIKEN Center for Computational Science, Kobe, Japan (Jul - Sep 2024)
Evaluated 3 years of hardware failures (3,262 total) on the Fugaku supercomputer (A64FX ARM-based) by device type, over time, and by physical location. Developed a toolset to predict failures in memory, interconnection and storage components using XGBoost, Random Forest and Decision Tree. Used generative AI for data augmentation resulting in similar accuracy than real data but reduced precision due to the noise in the synthetic samples.
