Software Engineer | Community Leader
She/Her

Hi! I am Naz, I'm a Software Engineer @Siemens R&D working on Electronic Design Automation. During my graduate studies in CS, I have done research in AI/ML and published multiple papers. I love to build with latest technologies, and share my enthusiasm with the tech community through tech-focused content and videos. I've also spoken at multiple events on AI, Python, and Women Empowerment. I have a passion for community building, and as a Google Developer Groups lead as well as Women Techmaker Ambassador and Mentor, I try to create inclusive spaces where individuals can learn, connect, and grow.
