Prinicipal Data Scientist @ Using machine learning and data science help people find jobs they will love. From February 2015 to Present (11 months) Senior Software Engineer @ Video Ads Quality Engineer I did backend work on the YouTube ads serving stack, with a focus on optimizing for viewer engagement. From September 2013 to February 2015 (1 year 6 months) Software Engineer @ YouTube Live Streaming. I refactored a backend system for collecting real-time analytics on live events, and implemented some of the front-end views into those analytics, including the highly visible "Watching Now" counter on the watch page.
