Software Engineer Intern (Quality)

Built a secure Linux VM environment for unattended Cursor Cloud Agent integration testing. Used Datadog insights to cut CI usage by 6 node-hours per day and developer wait time by 5–7 hours per day. Raised payments-service coverage from 0% to 55% and cut regression runtime by 42% while scaling automation to 300+ tests.
