Evelio VelezSoftware EngineerNew York

I build reliable backend systems and ship them to the cloud.

I turn ambiguous problems into clean, reliable software: distributed systems, API design and cloud architecture. Currently a CS student with internship, research and teaching experience, looking for a team where I can ship things that matter.

Interests

Beyond the code

What I read about at 1am, what gets me outside, and what I do when the laptop is closed.

  • AI I keep reading about

    Curiosity

    Less hype, more mechanics: how these systems actually work and where they break.

    • Agentic systems
    • Interpretability
    • RAG & retrieval
    • Inference efficiency
    • AI safety & evals

  • Sports

    Getting outside

    Competitive by nature. Most of my best debugging ideas show up mid-run.

    • Soccer
    • Running
    • Pickup basketball
    • Lifting

  • Hobbies

    Laptop closed

    Slow things that balance out the fast ones.

    • Chess
    • Photography
    • Cooking
    • Sci-fi novels
    • Vinyl
