Good afternoon! My name isAlex Ding.I'm a student developer.
I'm an undergrad pursuing a four-year concurrent ScB and ScM in Computer Science at Brown University. I'll be joining Jane Street as a software engineer in fall 2024, after interning there the summer before. Before this, I worked at Bloomberg and Googleas a software engineering intern.
At school, I was the Projects Director at Full Stack at Brown, where I coordinated 30+ project teams and directly manage several high impact products, such as Hours, Brown CS's TA hours platform, and The Critical Review, Brown's official course review website. I am also a Head TA for CSCI 1951A: Data Science.
Besides software engineering, I did research in body-aware generative models through Brown Visual Computing and worked on specializing object segmentation and image classification techniques to biomedical applications. You can read more about my research in my publications.
Outside of work, I'm a big time classical music nerd and play the cello. I also run an Instagram food account to document my dining and cooking adventures, all while playing a little too much League of Legends for my own good.
Since I get a lot of questions about internships, I made a slide deck sharing detailed tips for each step of the SWE internship application process. If you still have questions after reading the slides, reach out to me. I'm happy to chat.
