<strong>Incoming Software Engineer at Facebook — Natural Language Processing Research</strong>
</header>
<h2>Academics</h2>
<p>
<strong>University of Washington (2020)</strong> — MS Computer Science
<a href="documents/Semi-Supervised-Learning-For-Verbal-Autopsy.pdf" target="_blank">(master's thesis)</a>
</p>
<p>
<strong>University of Washington (2019)</strong> — BS Computer Science
</p>
<h2>NLP Research</h2>
<p>
I spent the latter two years of my undergraduate degree working on NLP research under Noah Smith in the <a href="http://www.ark.cs.washington.edu/index.html">ARK</a>.
My undergraduate experience prompted me to pursue a master's with a focus on NLP research in the same group.
This was, by far, the <em>best</em> experience during my time at UW.
</p>
<h2>Internships</h2>
<h3>Facebook</h3>
<p>
I interned twice at Facebook (Fall 2018 and Summer 2019) and worked on a variety of NLP projects
on the <b>Messenger Assistant</b> and <b>Newsfeed Integrity</b> Teams. Work from my first internship project was published
at <a href="https://www.emnlp-ijcnlp2019.org/program/accepted/">EMNLP 2019</a> and a project from my second internship was pushed to production.
</p>
<h3>Microsoft</h3>
<p>
I interned twice at Microsoft, first as an Explorer Intern in 2016 and then as a Software Engineering Intern in 2018.
Both internships were on different teams in Azure — <b>Security</b> and <b>Customer Experience Engineering (CXP)</b>.
</p>
<h3>Blue Origin</h3>
<p>
I spent one summer pursuing my childhood dream to work at a rocket company.
My work was focused on internal tooling, but I spent several hours marveling at the
<a href="https://www.blueorigin.com/engines/be-4">BE-4</a> engine and <a href="https://www.blueorigin.com/new-shepard/">New Shepard</a>
rocket on the factory floor.
I wrote about my experience <a href="https://medium.com/@karishma.mandyam/three-insights-from-ten-weeks-at-a-rocket-company-b8b970e6afdd">here</a>.
</p>
<h2>Teaching</h2>
<ul>
<li>
5x <a href="https://courses.cs.washington.edu/courses/cse311/">CSE 311</a> Foundations of Computer Science TA
</li>
<li>
1x <a href="https://courses.cs.washington.edu/courses/cse332/">CSE 332</a> Data Structures and Parallelism TA
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Writing</h2>
<p>
Sometimes I enjoy writing blog posts about my life, and other experiences.
I publish them <a href="https://medium.com/@karishma.mandyam">here</a>. So far, I've written two
end-of-year summaries (<a href="https://medium.com/@karishma.mandyam/what-happened-in-the-last-525-600-minutes-4183fd7f6cb1">2018</a>,
<a href="https://medium.com/@karishma.mandyam/2019-year-in-review-9499511ca4f4">2019</a>), a piece on why you should attend a
<a href="https://medium.com/@karishma.mandyam/10-reasons-to-attend-a-hackathon-1a3c4f0baad4">hackathon</a>, and a few more.
</p>
<h2>Other Pursuits</h2>
<p>
I spent the majority of my life learning classical Indian dance. This experience resulted in
some time on <a href="https://natyauw.weebly.com/">UW's classical Indian dance team</a> and
directing a classical competition, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/laasya2019">Laasya 2019</a>.
</p>
<p>
Occasionally, I dabble in some <em>very</em> amateur photography.
I publish my favorite ones <a href="https://www.instagram.com/kayrishmatic_photography/">here</a>.
