About
My resume shows the floor. Curiosity raises the ceiling.
I am currently looking for 2027 New Grad / Full-Time opportunities where I can bring that curiosity, learning velocity, and ownership to a team while continuing to grow as an engineer.
View ResumeHello World,
My name is Chieh-An (Andy) Chang. I graduated from the University of Toronto with High Distinction, completing a double major in Computer Science and Statistics. I am currently pursuing a Master of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (MDSAI) at the University of Waterloo, a program recognized by the Vector Institute.
I currently work at IMCO (Investment Management Corporation of Ontario) as a Data Engineer in a front-office environment, supporting buy-side investment teams. The role has taught me how to balance speed, accuracy, and maintainability while solving real business problems in a production environment.
When I started, I had no prior production experience. Within my first 16 weeks, I completed 9 Agile tasks and projects while contributing across 11 Agile initiatives. That experience reinforced how I like to work: learn quickly, ask the right questions, take ownership, and turn unfamiliar problems into reliable solutions.
A motto that reflects this mindset is:
“Be curious and take on challenges. It is okay to get stuck — what matters is asking the right questions, learning from them, and growing through the challenge.”
I think about careers in the AI era through a simple idea: lower bound and upper bound.
Your lower bound is what you already know — your current skills, tools, and experience.
Your upper bound is how far you can grow — how quickly you can learn, adapt, solve new problems, and expand what you are capable of delivering.
As AI makes knowledge and technical tools increasingly accessible, I believe that upper bound matters more than ever. Technologies will change, but the ability to learn, adapt, and take ownership remains valuable.
My current skills represent my lower bound.
My ability to keep learning represents my upper bound.
