Jenil’s strengths include translating ideas into deployed, user-centered products through technical implementation, hardware and coding experience, AI data modeling, user research and validation, and cross-functional collaboration. As part of the three-student Philanthropy Pioneers team, Jenil helped lead the development of an AI wearable prototype intended to make life easier for paralyzed patients. The team incorporated input from doctors and nurses, presented its work at the Young Innovators Program at IIT Kharagpur, and earned 2nd place among more than 2,000 participants worldwide. Jenil has also completed an AI internship with Samsung in Dubai, using Python to explore machine learning, computer vision, natural-language processing, basic models, and real data. Earlier, Jenil completed the 2024 ADNOC Work Placement Program, gaining exposure to interconnected chemical, mechanical, electrical, civil, instrumentation, control, and software engineering work. Jenil is motivated by startup-scale impact and by applying AI and engineering to global challenges. ## Services - Arduino IDE - Interviewing - Public Speaking - Presentation Skills - Information Technology - Arduino - Program Development - Leadership - Design - Graphic Design - Computer-Aided Design \(CAD\) - Web Design - Artificial Intelligence \(AI\) - Python \(Programming Language\) - Machine Learning - Project Management - Engineering - Team Work - Working Experience - Research Skills ## Highlights - Helped lead a three-student team developing an AI wearable prototype intended to make life easier for paralyzed patients. - Earned 2nd place at the Young Innovators Program hosted by IIT Kharagpur, competing among more than 2,000 participants from around the world. - Presented the Philanthropy Pioneers project at IIT Kharagpur after months of brainstorming, building, and learning. - Incorporated support from teachers and insights from doctors across Abu Dhabi into the assistive wearable project. - Validated patient-centered design work with doctors and nurses. - Completed the Artificial Intelligence Program at Samsung Galaxy AI in Dubai. - Used Python during the Samsung AI program to build basic models and work with real data. - Explored machine learning, computer vision, natural-language processing, smart photography, voice assistants, and on-device personalization through Samsung’s AI program. - Completed the 2024 ADNOC Work Placement Program as a Grade 11 student. - Explored ADNOC’s global operations and gas sweetening, including the removal of harmful substances from sour gas. - Learned about Smart Plant Foundation software for managing complex data, along with engineering safety systems and sustainability practices. - Explored structural planning through civil engineering sessions and applied concepts in a bridge-design activity. - Observed instrumentation and control engineering in ADNOC operations and studied mechanical engineering topics including piping systems and rotating machinery. - Gained experience spanning hardware, coding, AI data modeling, user research, design validation, technical implementation, and user engagement. - Volunteered in Gujarat, building community connection and reinforcing the importance of empathy and service. ## Experience - **Work Placement at ADNOC Group** (2024-12-01–2024-12-01) — The 2024 ADNOC Work Placement Program was a transformative experience that expanded my understanding of engineering beyond my initial interest in computer science. As a Grade 11 student, I expected to connect most with tech-related aspects, but I found myself equally fascinated by chemical, mechanical, and electrical engineering. We explored ADNOC’s global operations, including gas sweetening—removing harmful substances from sour gas—which highlighted the real-world impact of chemical engineering. Each day introduced a new discipline: from software tools like Smart Plant Foundation that manage complex data, to safety systems and sustainability practices in electrical engineering. Civil engineering sessions focused on structural planning, while a practical bridge design activity helped us apply concepts creatively. Instrumentation and control engineering gave us a live view of ADNOC’s operations, adding a sense of scale and coordination. Mechanical engineering sessions covered piping sy - **Internship Program at Samsung** (2024-11-01–2024-12-01) — I took part in the Artificial Intelligence Program at Samsung Galaxy AI, and it was an incredibly exciting experience. I got to work hands-on with Python and explore how AI actually works behind the scenes in Samsung devices. From learning about machine learning and computer vision to understanding how natural language processing powers voice assistants, everything felt both practical and fascinating. I used Python to build basic models and play around with real data, which really boosted my confidence with coding. What I loved most was seeing how features like smart photography and on-device personalization come to life through AI. This program didn’t just improve my tech skills—it helped me see how AI is shaping the future, one device at a time. - **Project Intern at Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur** (2024-11-01–2025-01-01) — We call ourselves the Philanthropy Pioneers—a team of three students brought together by a simple but powerful goal: to make life a little easier for paralyzed patients. What started as a passion project turned into months of brainstorming, building, and learning. With the support of our teachers and insights from doctors across Abu Dhabi, we shaped our idea into something real—something we truly believed could make a difference. When we got the chance to present our work at the Young Innovators Program at IIT Kharagpur, we were both nervous and excited. The competition brought together over 2,000 participants from around the world, each with incredible ideas and talent. Standing among them was inspiring—and when we were announced as the 2nd place winners, it was a moment we’ll never forget. More than just an award, this experience showed us the impact of teamwork, compassion, and not being afraid to chase big ideas—even as students. ## Education - Bachelor of Science, Computer Science — University of Massachusetts Amherst (2026-08-01–2030-09-01) - PIES, Abu Dhabi (2016-03-01–2026-03-01) ## FAQ ### What does Jenil do?
