SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Kush Bhagat.

I build systems that work behind the scenes
and software people can put to use.

My experience spans engineering at Amazon and Paycom, and machine learning research at USC. I'm interested in reliable infrastructure, thoughtful applications, and the ideas that connect them.

RESEARCH

A little about me

I studied computer science at UT Dallas. I enjoy problems that call for both a clear technical model and an intuitive way to interact with it—from learning platforms to game logic.
