Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndreea Pocol is a PhD candidate in Computer Science at the University of Waterloo with eight years of professional experience bridging research and production software engineering across computer graphics, digital image processing, HCI, and big data. She combines academic teaching and course delivery (multiple terms as instructional/teaching assistant and instructor) with hands-on engineering at companies like Oracle, Ubisoft, Magnet Forensics and Christie Digital, where she contributed to CI/CD, cloud infrastructure, performance capture tools, and distributed build systems. Comfortable across Python, C++, C#, Java and cloud-native tooling, she has a track record of turning research into practical systems—e.g., ML-driven film analysis and stereoscopic 3D prototypes—while also improving operational resilience with infrastructure-as-code. Known for clear technical communication and fast student support, she pairs deep technical curiosity with an uncommon mix of film-domain insight and production-grade engineering.
