Aryan Achar

Software Engineer

I build models, tools, and apps that turn ideas into working products.

About

Hi! I’m Aryan, a Computer Science student at UT Dallas working across AI engineering, data science, and full-stack development. I enjoy building projects where those overlap, like a transit app with its own routing engine or a model that grades every shot from an NBA season.

Right now, I’m an AI Engineer Intern at Innowhyte (opens in new tab), working on an agentic AI project, and an undergraduate researcher in Dr. Alexander Michels’ spatial data science group (opens in new tab), studying gaps in healthcare access. Previously, I spent a year on the UT Dallas IT support desk helping students, faculty, and staff.

In my free time, I’m usually playing , hanging out with my friends, watching films (opens in new tab), or reading a book from my ever-growing reading list. Currently, I’m reading Urban Creatures (opens in new tab) by Sarah Gray.
