Hi, I'm Andre Melendez

I'm a computer science student at the University of Texas at El Paso with a passion for software and web development. I'm always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow. When I'm not coding, you can find me watching anime, playing basketball, hiking, or at the gym. Fun fact: I have a shih-tzu.

Software Engineering Intern | Orchestration Frameworks

May 2025 - Aug 2025

  • Designed and developed a tool suite to streamline debugging for Android Framework engineers.
  • My primary deliverable was an interactive web application using Angular, TypeScript, and D3.js to render complex process graphs.
  • Continued work on a Python script to decode this data into JSON and extended Android protobuffs to capture key process metadata, a feature set to deploy on over 2 billion devices.
  • The final tool significantly improved engineering workflows by providing clear, interactive visualizations and automating tedious manual tasks.
