About Eric Yang

The important thing is to never stop questioning."- Albert Einstein. I've always been a curious person who enjoys figuring out how things work through different methods of learning. This is also why I decided to pursue an education in the field of engineering at McMaster allowing me to gain knowledge and experience through courses, labs, projects and co-ops. I've had the great opportunities to work as a Strategies and Insights Intern at CIBC, SCADA Specialist Intern at the Regional Municipality of Peel, as well as the opportunities to work on several intriguing projects throughout my time at McMaster. These opportunities have given me a wide range of experiences working with different: technologies, types of data, people with vast backgrounds, and types of problems. Achievements: CIBC - Strategies & Insights • Awarded the Exceptional Student Award for Fall 2021 for demonstrating a positive attitude, team spirit and CIBC's values of trust, teamwork, and accountability McMaster University • Brain-Robot Interface Based on AI Capstone Project (Sensors & Transducers, Vol. 257, Issue 3, May 2022) • GLO-BUS - My Team and I ranked in Global Top 100 each week At my core, I am a problem solver who enjoys learning about new innovations, taking on tough challenges and collaborating with others who share the same goal. I enjoy problem solving, programming, working with data, working with new technologies, and most importantly, asking questions! Skills: • Problem Solving, Communication, Data Analysis, Data Visualization • Programming: Python, SQL, C++, Java, Git, Machine Learning (scikit-learn, TensorFlow) • Data Analysis: Pandas, NumPy, SQL for data extraction and manipulation • Data Visualization: Tableau for presenting insights and trends • Statistical Analysis: Hypothesis testing, cohort analysis, A/B testing • Soft Skills: Effective collaboration with cross-functional teams, presenting complex concepts to non-technical stakeholders Feel free to connect or message me if you're interested! I'm always open to new opportunities to learn and collaborate.
