Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNida Firdaws is a software engineer and open-source enthusiast with nine years of experience building practical back-end solutions and algorithmic tooling. Based in Redmond, she has interned at Microsoft twice—contributing AI tooling for Xbox game health and working on gaming accessibility—bringing user-focused machine learning and systems thinking to production problems. A senior Data Science student at UC San Diego, she combines academic rigor with hands-on research experience at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and data analysis work for environmental projects. Her GitHub contributions to OpenGenus/cosmos highlight a knack for clean Java implementations of data structures and algorithmic problems used in large contributor-driven datasets. She also has a track record of teaching and mentoring—through Microsoft TEALS, college tutoring, and one-on-one instruction—translating complex concepts into accessible learning. Notably, she pairs accessibility-focused product experience with algorithmic depth, a less obvious blend that strengthens both user impact and technical robustness.
