About

I’m Kuday, a Computer Science student at Texas A&M University–Victoria. I build software that replaces slow, manual work with tools people actually use.

I’m a data science intern at Cummins, where I build dashboards, a machine learning model, AI assistants, and internal apps. Before that, I ran operations for an online engraving store and taught myself Python to automate it.

Work projects

  1. Cummins

    Turbo Balancer dashboards

    Live dashboards for Cummins’ turbo balancing machines, replacing hand-entered data and Excel reports. Engineers used them to find the slow spots on the line.

    35 → 55 turbos a day per machine

    Databricks · Python · Power BI

  2. Cummins

    Balancer correction model

    A model that reproduces the correction the balancing machine calculates, matching it about 98% of the time, so the machines Cummins already owns can do more.

    About $16M in new machines not needed

  3. Cummins

    Engineering AI agents

    Assistants that compare new patents against Cummins’ own, turn rough project ideas into proposals, and help with quality decisions — all answering from internal documents.

    Patent reviews take half the time

  4. Cummins

    Skills & Capabilities app

    One app for tracking who knows what, replacing 5+ scattered spreadsheets and tools. Rolled out first to a 30-person engineering team.

    About 60% less time spent managing skills

  5. Cummins

    CCS AI SharePoint site

    The home for AI work across Cummins’ components and software group: news, a list of live and in-progress agents, and training.

    Live for a ~20,000-person organization

    SharePoint

  6. Engrave Me Now

    Store sales & inventory system

    Pulls orders and stock from Amazon, Etsy, and a third store into one place, forecasts demand, and ranks what to restock before each order.

    Inventory costs down 20%, sales up 30%

Personal projects

  1. Kessler

    Every tracked object in Earth orbit, 1957 to now: a live 3D globe of about 30,000 objects at their real positions, plus charts of how orbit got crowded. It started as my team’s MATLAB app that took 1st place out of 25 teams at the Grand Challenge Winter Summit.
