Nilan is a rising sophomore currently attending The University of Alabama in Huntsville, working on a degree in Computer Science. He is currently working in the ACE group for the Strategic Systems Business Unit, developing a Large Language Model that uses user-supplied documents to answer questions without an internet connection. Nilan mentioned that while applying for internships and asking friends and classmates about their experiences, Torch was repeatedly mentioned. People told him how well the company treats its employees and the various benefits, such as the employee-ownership program. The company’s reputation for having a great work environment was a significant factor for him when applying to various companies. His entire interviewing and hiring process was extremely friendly and transparent, a welcome surprise compared to other companies he interviewed with. His favorite event so far has been the intern panel. Hearing advice from full-time employees and former interns was really helpful, making him feel more comfortable knowing that others had the same feelings and thoughts when they were interns. Nilan aims to finish the summer with a fully functional prototype of his project and hopes that by working on such a large and difficult project, he will improve his skills as a programmer. Outside of work and school, weightlifting has always been a big part of his life and it is something he is passionate about. He also played varsity football throughout high school, so staying active is still a big part of who he is. Additionally, he participates in the UAH Space Hardware Club. Recently, his team returned from an international competition in Virginia, where they placed first in the U.S. and second worldwide out of over 40 teams.
