Summary
Amanda Tait is a Software Engineer at Google NYC with 11 years of experience, focused on improving output quality for large-scale data processing pipelines using C++, SQL, and internal ML and MapReduce infrastructure. A 2016 OSU Computer Science graduate with a strong 3.93 GPA, she pairs low-level systems interest—operating systems, device drivers, and network stacks—with hands-on backend engineering at scale. At Google she blends data science techniques with systems programming to prototype and implement production improvements, showing comfort across the stack from ML evaluation to high-performance C++ code. Though she’s dabbled in full-stack and mobile development, she gravitates toward backend and systems work and isn’t afraid to get close to hardware or infrastructure when solving problems.
