Robotics and Machine Learning Research Assistant at

Computer Science junior at NYU building practical software skills

I design and build software projects while I complete my CS degree, focusing on clean implementations and learning industry practice.

Work samples

Portfolio of class and personal projects demonstrating algorithms, systems thinking, and full-stack development. Each project highlights what I built and the technical choices I made.

  • FailSpec
    FailSpec

    Local-first developer tool that converts bug reports into reproducible, evidence-backed Playwright regression tests. Led architecture and integration in a three-person team; built the investigation API and async execution pipeline across Codex analysis, isolated Git worktrees, controlled Playwright runs, persistence, and verification; hardened cross-platform execution with typed failure states and 286 automated tests.

About me

I design and build software projects while I complete my CS degree, focusing on clean implementations and learning industry practice.

I am Omer Hayat, a junior studying Computer Science at New York University. I have some practical experience and I'm building a portfolio of projects that bridge core CS fundamentals with hands-on development. I am exploring roles where I can grow technical skills and contribute to real products.
