ABOUT ME

Hi there I’m Yue Yang, an incoming software engineer at Amazon.

  • 🎓 I obtained my master degree at Duke Unviersity in May 2021
  • 👍 I am good at data structure & algorithm, Java & C++ OO design, system programming (concurrency, TCP socket).
  • 👩‍💻 As a graduate teaching assistant at Duke University, I improved the autograder system and helped students with troubleshooting and debugging while programming.
  • 🥳 As a software intern at Duke University, I implemented the backend Server of an Android application, handled concurrency requests, realized Server-Client communication and interacted with database.
  • 🤩 As a research intern at Beijing Institute of Technology, I carried out research on MRI data harmonization and developed new algorithms based on machine learning.
  • 💡 I created multiple projects from scratch, developed Frontend, Backend and designed the UI.
  • 🙋🏻‍♀️ I have a strong passion for writing high quality code and test cases!
  • 🌆 I really really love taking photos of sunset, please check “PHOTO” to see the wonderful pictures!

EXPERIENCE

Graduate Teaching Assistant

Jan 2021 - May 2021 | Duke University
  • Teaching Assistant for Duke ECE650 Systems Programming and Engineering Course.
  • Responsible for helping instructors solving students’ problems when they are learning system programming.
  • Helped students improve troubleshooting and debugging skill while programming.

Software Engineer Intern

May 2020 - Aug 2020 | Duke University
  • Developed an Android application which enables users to explore the virtual word, build buildings, buy equipment, fight monsters, upgrade soldiers and add other users as friends while walking around in real world.
  • Developed the backend server with Java. Handled concurrency requests with multi-thread programming, realized server-client communication with TCP socket programming, JSON and Netty, interacted Postgres database with Hibernate.
  • Applied Agile methodology, carried out issue tracking and CI/CD pipeline.
  • Carried out unit tests with JUnit framework and used Mockito to mock external dependencies.

Research and Development Intern

Aug 2018 - Mar 2019 | Beijing Institute of Technology
  • Worked on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data harmonization. Developed algorithms to eliminate the differences caused by the scanner.
  • Calculated RISH features from the original MRI signal. Based on that, realized a linear data harmonization algorithm and a CNN machine-learning-based nonlinear algorithm.
  • The proposed algorithms harmonize the raw signal from scanners, eliminate the changes caused by scanners while maintaining the fiber orientation in human brain. Any derived quantity from the harmonized data can be pooled from different sites for further medical analysis.
  • Tools and skills: Keras, machine learning, DIPY, NiBabel, Ants
