About

Navneeth Dhamotharan

Hey, I'm Navneeth.

I'm a University of Washington student pursuing degrees in Informatics (Data Science) and Economics. I'm interested in software engineering, data engineering, and applied machine learning. I'm especially drawn to work that turns complex systems and messy data into useful products.

Right now, I'm researching accessible sidewalk mapping at Howe Lab and building IsoCourt, an AI badminton coach. I recently built research data pipelines at the UW eScience Institute, and I've led student engineering communities through SWECC Labs and Eat Together.

I'm currently looking for software, data engineering, and applied machine learning opportunities where I can ship useful systems and learn from a strong team.
