Hi, I'm Samiya 👋

I'm an MS Computer Engineering student at George Washington University, concentrating in Machine Learning & Intelligent Systems as a Fulbright Scholar.

My background spans machine learning and computer vision research, software engineering, and low-power hardware design.I'm interested in building efficient intelligent systems across machine learning, systems, computer architecture, and hardware.

🔭 Currently

  • 🎓 Pursuing an MS in Computer Engineering — ML & Intelligent Systems
  • 🧠 Focused on machine learning, AI systems, and computer architecture
  • ⚡ Interested in efficient AI, AI hardware, and neuromorphic computing
  • 💻 Building systems across ML, software, and hardware

🔬 Research

My research experience includes deep learning and computer vision, with work in camouflaged object detection, agricultural pest monitoring, gaze estimation, and assistive technology.

I've also worked on low-power hardware design, including CMOS circuit design and simulation using the SkyWater 130nm PDK.

💼 Engineering

Previously a Software Engineer at Conrad Labs, where I worked on a US healthcare platform and production backend systems.

I designed and shipped an AI-powered outbound calling platform with vendor-agnostic AI integrations and asynchronous workflows using AWS services including SQS, ECS, Lambda, and CloudWatch. The platform reduced outbound calling costs by 11× and manual outreach by 80%.
