Alex Cao

Economics & Data Science student at the University of Sydney.

I build projects across data science, applied machine learning, AI software, and product engineering.

Selected Work

Applied AI and local-first software for organising university material and working with source-grounded study context.

  • Local course-material workspace with search, previews, notes, and study workflows
  • Source-grounded AI answers with citation-focused context
  • Privacy-focused localhost architecture
  • Persistent conversations and course/week-based organisation
  • Regression, privacy, security, and first-run testing

Focus: applied AI · software engineering · local-first product development
Built with: Python · JavaScript · HTML/CSS · SQLite · OpenAI API · KaTeX · GitHub Actions

Reproducible machine learning solution for the 2026 Inter-Uni Datathon Stream 1 challenge.

  • Feature engineering and validation-focused modelling workflow
  • CatBoost and XGBoost experiments
  • Repeated cross-validation and holdout evaluation
  • Reproducible final pipeline and submission package

Focus: data science · applied machine learning · reproducibility · model validation
Built with: Python · pandas · scikit-learn · CatBoost · XGBoost

Strata Survey

Frontend developer · private team project

Frontend/product engineering for a UAV photogrammetry-based platform that measures stockpile volume from drone survey data.

  • Built the frontend architecture and page structure
  • Implemented authentication, registration, protected routes, and post-login navigation
  • Developed project, dashboard, settings, and device-management interfaces
  • Integrated frontend flows with backend APIs and owner-scoped project/user data
  • Designed loading, empty, error, and failure-feedback states
  • Refined responsive behaviour, visual polish, and workflow usability

Focus: frontend engineering · product engineering · backend API integration
Built with: React · TypeScript · TanStack Start · Tailwind CSS · Git

Current Direction

I am developing a portfolio that connects:

Economics + Data Science
         +
reproducible analysis and machine learning
         +
applied AI software
         +
frontend / product engineering

Toolbox

Languages: Python · JavaScript / TypeScript · SQL
Data / ML: pandas · scikit-learn · CatBoost · XGBoost · cross-validation · feature engineering
Web / Product: React · HTML · CSS · Tailwind CSS · TanStack Start
Tools: Git · GitHub · GitHub Actions · SQLite

Interests

Data Science · Economics · Applied AI · Machine Learning · Local-first software · Product engineering


I am early in my degree, so I use GitHub to show the progression from fundamentals toward more complete, evidence-backed projects.
