About
Jack Youstra is a software engineer at Google working on Gemini.
He got his CS degree from UT Austin and interned at Apple and Citadel before working on NanoFlick, a mobile app that allows users to create and share short videos, full time. He then worked on a MATS extension with Ethan Perez, culminating in a paper on finetuning robustness to ciphers.
Techwise, he likes iOS development, browsers, compilers, writing mods for Paradox games, and random deep learning things.
Jack has been developing iOS apps since 2012.
He also likes Star Wars, although he remembers less than he one did.
He's working on his writing skills, including the appropriate times to use first-person and third-person, especially in profiles and introductions. He hopes he got it right 😅
