Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Peng is a software engineer and data scientist with 11 years of hands-on experience building full-stack systems and research-grade simulations focused on work, transportation, aviation, and education. He founded CourseKit to help students optimize schedules, led initial development of FLOE for large-scale multi-UAV mission planning under a NASA SBIR, and created an agent-based airline recovery model published in conferences and a journal. Equally comfortable in production and research settings, he has shipped CV and automation pipelines at Apple and introduced automated acceptance testing for FAA training tools at Mosaic ATM. A proponent of test-driven development and conceptual elegance, he combines strong CS fundamentals (perfect GPAs at Michigan and UCSD) with a knack for turning messy real-world datasets into actionable systems. Notably, he built cross-institutional research teams to dissect the Southwest Airlines 2022 disruption, showing both technical depth and domain-driven collaboration.
