Aadi Pendse

Computer Science student at WPI with a foundation in Applied Mathematics — building software from low-level systems to full applications. Seeking Summer 2027 internships in Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, and Artificial Intelligence.

About Me

I'm a Computer Science student at Worcester Polytechnic Institute with a strong foundation in Applied Mathematics. I build software that ranges from low-level systems to full applications, working across Python, C, and data-driven systems — with an emphasis on writing correct, well-structured code. That means everything from implementing numerical algorithms from scratch to building tools that handle messy real-world input reliably.

Outside the classroom, I'm a build team member and documentation custodian for WPI's VEX Robotics Club, where I help keep engineering decisions, testing results, and project history organized and useful to the whole team. I've also independently run an e-commerce business since 2022, which has taught me how to ship, iterate, and own outcomes end-to-end.

I'm currently looking for Summer 2027 internships in Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, and Artificial Intelligence.

Selected Projects

Distributed Life-Safety & Special-Hazard Test Infrastructure

2026 – Present
  • Engineered inter-panel communication between a Notifier NFW-100X addressable master panel and a Potter PFC-4410G3 conventional releasing panel with a 10-amp PSN-106 remote power supply over Ethernet, architecting a distributed system in which remote nodes coordinate multi-zone emergency response.
  • Implemented time-synchronized output logic across six independent channels, modeling each channel as a finite-state machine to achieve deterministic wave-pattern synchronization, similar to concurrent process scheduling.
  • Built event-driven monitoring logic using dry-contact inputs as hardware interrupts and cross-zoned conditions as Boolean predicates, so the system responds to real-time events with deterministic, verifiable outcomes.
  • Constructed electrical load models and diagnostic routines to analyze power limits and isolate faults, applying edge-case testing and fault-tolerance principles from software reliability engineering.
Hardware IntegrationSystemsNetworking

Reduced Row Echelon Form (RREF) Matrix Solver

May – Jul 2026
  • Developed a C program that calculates matrix RREF using Gaussian elimination.
  • Documented the algorithm with worked examples and sample outputs.
CAlgorithmsNumerical Methods

GPA Calculator

Feb – Apr 2025
  • Built a Python application to calculate GPA from course grades and credits.
  • Applied structured logic, user input handling, and validation.

Collaboration & Leadership

VEX Robotics Club, WPI — Build Team Member & Documentation Custodian

2025 – Present
  • Support robot build activities while maintaining organized engineering notes on design decisions, build changes, testing results, and project progress.
  • Preserve shared project knowledge to strengthen troubleshooting, design iteration, and collaboration across mechanical, electrical, and programming contributors.

Independent E-Commerce Seller — Self-Employed

Jun 2022 – Present
  • Built and manage an online resale operation covering pricing, product listings, customer communication, inventory decisions, and order fulfillment.
  • Maintain consistent quarterly sales volume while responding to buyer inquiries within 24 hours and delivering a strong customer experience.
  • Apply entrepreneurial judgment, digital marketing, and analytical pricing decisions to improve product visibility and sales performance.
