Summary
Aditya Saxena is a Computer Engineering student at UIUC and a versatile software engineer with nine years of experience building end-to-end systems—from full-stack Next.js platforms and custom MCP servers to low-latency C++ systems and agentic AI workflows. He has shipped production tooling at PayPal to correlate client events, API traces, and logs into low-latency timelines and built AI-driven log analysis agents integrated with developer tools. Currently researching energy sustainability and EV-grid interactions at UIUC and set to join Snowflake Notebooks, he’s expanding into distributed systems and FPGA/digital hardware work to reconnect with the “computer” in his degree. Known for pragmatic debugging (a well-placed print still wins), he blends research, product-focused engineering, and practical ML/AI integrations. Comfortable across front-end, backend, and systems code, he enjoys solving problems end-to-end and turning side projects into shared infrastructure. Reachable at saxena11@illinois.edu, he brings curiosity and a track record of translating experiments into production impact.
