Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNisha Gandhi is a Software Engineer with nine years of experience, currently based in Sunnyvale and pursuing a MS in Computer Science at Stony Brook University with a focus on CV, ML, DL and NLP. She combines academic research—co-authoring a paper on speech fluency augmentation—with production-facing engineering at Google, applying deep learning to real-time systems like gesture recognition and driver monitoring. Her hands-on stack includes Python, C++, OpenCV, PyTorch, TensorFlow and deploying on edge devices (Jetson TX2/CUDA), reflecting strength in both model development and embedded inference. Past internships boosted model performance and mobile real-time capabilities, for example improving logo-detection accuracy through augmentation and hyperparameter tuning. Known for bridging research and engineering, she thrives on turning academic ideas into deployable, low-latency ML systems.
