About Me
I'm Adith Chandrasekaran, a senior at the University of Maryland-College Park (BS in Computer Science, minor in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Dean’s List, graduating Dec 2025). My passion is building impactful software at the intersection of engineering and product management, with a focus on bridging business needs and technical solutions. I've interned/fellowed at KPMG, Palantir, and Amalgam Inc., working on generative AI, large-scale data applications, and fullstack development using modern frameworks like React.js, Next.js, and Angular. As a co-founder and product manager at WallStreetEdge, I led the creation of an AI tutor web app, managing both technical and strategic aspects. My technical toolkit includes Python, Java, TypeScript, and Rust, alongside cloud and DevOps tools like AWS and Azure. I have a strong foundation in agile methodologies, project management, and product strategy. Outside of coursework and internships, I've contributed to competitive projects and engineering teams—from developing airbrake systems for the Terrapin Rocket Team to placing 2nd at Northrop Grumman Hack Week. My goal is always to deliver solutions that are both technically robust and aligned with real-world business needs.

Arena Mockup:
Visualized a 22,300‑seat venue with full branding and fan flow—backed by demographic and revenue forecasts.
Bayesian Ranking Algorithm:
I designed and implemented a custom Bayesian algorithm that factored in:
• Rating (out of 5)
• Number of Reviews
• Sentiment Analysis using NLP on review text
• Vendor Age to determine vendor score
This approach allowed us to rank vendors more fairly and accurately by combining quantitative and qualitative data.
