Background

About Eric du

I am a passionate advocate for using technology to make people's lives easier, and I am constantly looking for ways to innovate and solve real-world problems. With a foundation in Information Systems and Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University, my expertise spans a range of programming languages like Python, Java, and C, as well as tools like Git, Unity, and Postgres. From building AI-driven solutions or developing user-friendly web applications, I focus on creating impactful technologies that simplify processes. I’m currently working on several projects to address real-world issues, like an AI Course Selection Tool that uses generative AI to streamline the course-planning process. Additionally, I am developing an app that converts lecture recordings into comprehensive notes. These projects give me experience in full-stack development, sharpening my skills in databases, API integration, and application design. My past experiences have taught me how to employ technology in a business environment. Previously, I contributed to a pharmacy digitalization project with Boston Consulting Group. There, I led the automation of data extraction and processing tasks to optimize business operations. During the process, I not only learned how to manage data from senior data analysts, but also learned the importance of teamwork and communication in a professional environment. These experiences taught me how to translate technical concepts into practical solutions. Looking ahead, I am eager to expand my knowledge in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and large-scale software systems. I’m particularly excited about the potential for AI-driven applications to reshape everyday tasks and increase efficiency. I am eager to collaborate with forward-thinking organizations that share this vision.
