Ishraq Basher

CS student at NYU Tandon, based in New York, graduating in 2027 with minors in Math and Data Science. I build distributed systems, real-time backends, and full-stack apps, plus the occasional native iOS project.

Most of what I enjoy sits where systems meet scale: fault-tolerant pipelines, low-latency services, and backends that hold up under load. When I'm not on internship work I'm usually shipping a side project or picking apart how something is built. Currently interning at Rivian and SEO, and TAing at NYU on the side.

Rivian Software Engineer Intern, 2026. Concurrent comms module on the Ignition SDK, plus a Kubernetes (Rancher) failover system with heartbeat monitoring
SEO Tech Developer Intern, 2026. Distributed rate limiter in Redis, Postgres schema tuning that cut read latency 45%
Fox Software Engineer Intern, 2025. Automation pipeline that synced 50+ show docs and reduced manual tagging 80%
New York University Teaching Assistant since 2024. Deputy of the Web Dev Committee, deployed a course platform for 500+ users
