Who I Am
I'm Azib Malik, a Junior at the University of Washington Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering pursuing a B.S. in Computer Science with a Minor in Business. My passion for technology and problem-solving led me to pursue a career in software engineering.
Currently serving as a Perplexity Campus Strategist, I'm driving AI adoption across campus while leveraging my experience as a Software Engineer Intern at Amy's Limousine Service where I automated critical backend workflows and architected scalable database solutions.
I am constantly learning and exploring new technologies to expand my skill set. As a student, I balance my academic pursuits with practical projects to gain hands-on experience in software development, while maintaining a GPA of 3.41 and being selected for the competitive Allen School Scholars Program.
