Nathan Tsao
Applied Machine Learning Engineer with experience in generative AI, reinforcement learning, and scalable machine learning. Seeking full-time ML Engineer positions.
About Me
I received my MS from UT Austin in 2025, and BS from UIUC in 2022. During my Master's studies, I developed machine learning algorithms for scalable electrical network modeling and human activity recognition using batteryless sensors as a graduate research assistant. I was also recently a research intern at NASA Ames Research Center (Summer 2025). Interested in deep learning, generative AI, and humanoid robots.
