Harshil Goyal Computer Science + Mathematics @ UT Austin
Expected May 2029
I’m a Computer Science and Mathematics student at UT Austin interested in software engineering, AI, and data-driven products. I’ve worked on full-stack applications, robotics, real-time telemetry, and internal tools, and I’m currently building UGC Connect, a platform connecting creators with companies. I enjoy turning messy problems into practical software and am currently looking for Summer 2027 software engineering internships. Hover or focus to know me better
