* Xiangyi Li, a 1st year MS student in Computer Science at San Jose State University, interned at Dolby Laboratories as a Windows Platform Entertainment Development Engineer in 2023. He developed frontend and backend features for an enterprise-grade Dolby Vision support portal. He quickly adapted to the .NET framework, completed previous backlogs ahead of schedule, and implemented new features that significantly increased customer happiness. He was able to independently come up with new features and managing JIRA issues in the absence of the product manager and project manager, as a result of actively collaborating with cross-functional teams.

* As the founding engineer at Imaginix in January 2024, Xiangyi Li architected the tech stack for the Kimi AI anime voice chatting app. He crafted project-specific interview questions, made key tech decisions, and shipped the app in three weeks. He contributed 90% of the codebase. He implemented server-side optimizations that reduced latency and designed a scalable, globally fast animation stream service with minimal bandwidth usage.

* Currently, Xiangyi is building personal projects, organizing a student group for coding practice and mock interviews, and actively attending hackathons and workshops to expand his skills. He has booked tickets to several high-quality workshops, including one on Enterprise Angular, which aligns with the Service Application intern position. Also, here's a list of questions requested.

Three bullet points of excellence

During my internship on the OpenShift team from May 2022 to Nov 2022, I proposed to develop to two internal tools for a department of 200 and a team of 15 respectively on my own. These are used to this day. I also extended dozes of Cypress functionalities and my team was able to use them for 100+ features they ship in a sprint.

Red Hat Inc

During my Dolby Vision internship from Feb 2023 to Apr 2023, I finished twice as many issues (including features and bugs) as my mentor had planned before onboarding. For a client software I was working on I managed to drastically improve satisfaction in terms of UX/UI and adding helpfull features through active communication with field engineers and the upstream team. I also rewrote to make its codebase more maintainable.
