I build software with product focus and real technical depth.

I am a computer science student at the University of Florida working across full-stack engineering, applied machine learning, and systems programming.

I like projects where the user experience matters just as much as the implementation underneath. That has taken me from a live study product and collaborative web applications into speech ML, file systems, networking, and memory management.

I am looking for internships and early-career roles where I can contribute quickly, keep learning, and work on software that rewards strong technical fundamentals.

Kerwin Larrobis Jr.

Product-minded software, applied ML, and systems work.

Full-stack

Product work that stays strong beyond the UI.

Applied ML

Practical workflows, evaluation, and guardrails.

Systems

File systems, networking, memory, and debugging.

What I look for in the work

I like projects that get more interesting the deeper you go.

The pattern I keep coming back to is simple: start with a real use case, follow the implementation until the constraint becomes the interesting part, and keep refining until the result feels deliberate.

Full-stack product work

I like building products that feel clean in front of the user and stay disciplined in the implementation underneath.

Applied machine learning

I am most interested in ML when it sits inside a real workflow and has to earn its place through structure, evaluation, and reliability.

Systems depth

I spend real time on lower-level work too, because memory, persistence, protocols, and debugging shape the software long before the UI does.

How I work

I like software that feels considered from the outside in.

The work I keep coming back to sits at the overlap of product clarity, technical depth, and the discipline to make the details hold up.

Product engineering

I like building software end to end, then refining it until the experience feels clear, dependable, and worth using more than once.

  • Next.js, React, FastAPI, Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, Prisma
  • Authentication, API design, integration work, and maintainable frontend structure
  • A bias toward clarity, polish, and software that feels dependable under real use

Applied ML

I like ML projects where preprocessing, feature quality, and evaluation matter just as much as the model choice itself.

  • NumPy, Pandas, scikit-learn, Librosa, Matplotlib
  • Speech and audio feature extraction, dataset preparation, and model evaluation
  • AI-assisted workflows with validation, fallback logic, and reproducibility in mind

Systems thinking

I enjoy file systems, networking, memory management, and the kind of debugging that forces a sharper mental model of the machine.

  • C++, POSIX I/O, FUSE, static libraries, Linux tooling, sockets
  • Memory handling, persistent structure, peer communication, and protocol logic
  • Comfortable moving lower in the stack when the problem calls for it

Education

University of Florida

I am working toward a B.S. in Computer Science, with a minor in Food Science and a self-directed concentration in AI/ML.

B.S. in Computer Science

Minor in Food Science

Self-directed concentration in AI/ML

I am open to software engineering, full-stack development, AI/ML-adjacent work, and systems or infrastructure-leaning roles.

Organization

AI Student Club

It keeps me close to how other students are applying models, tools, and workflows in real projects.

Organization

UF Open Source Club

It keeps me around collaborative development, code review, and the discipline of writing software for other people.

Organization

UF Student Infosec Team (UFSIT)

It sharpens the security side of my thinking and fits naturally with my interest in systems work.

Contact

If my work looks relevant, I would be glad to talk.

I am looking for internships and early-career opportunities where I can contribute quickly, keep learning, and work with people who care about doing the details well.
