Emma Shi
I am a Computer Science student at the University of Waterloo. Super interested in all areas of software, particularly the intersection of product and entrepreneurship!
•Previously at:
◇Ply Health (YC S24) - Built full‑stack systems to automate provider credentialing. Worked as one of the first engineers during seed raise.
◇Zomp - Improved defect detection and classification in oil and gas pipelines across North America.
◇Jane Street - Spent a week in NYC, working alongside quants, devs, and researchers.
•Currently ML Project Lead at Wat Street, working on Correlation Testing— a project developing models to measure time-dilated correlations between stock pairs.
Outside of tech, I play on the Varsity Ultimate Team at Waterloo, and I enjoy swimming, board games, basketball, reading, and cafes.
