Infrastructure & Ride and Fleet Software Teams • Streamlined demo and testing operations by creating admin interfaces, API access to the cloud, a fleet reservation system, and automated ride-hail issue triage. • Sped up container builds by 2-10x and eliminated the vast majority of unexpected build failures. • Rewrote the on-vehicle fleet dispatch and ride state module from Python to C++, while also modifying it to run asynchronously and use established internal communication frameworks. Ride State Interface Rework • Architected a new cloud-to-vehicle ride state information pipeline in an initiative-led project to modernize years-old legacy demo requirements and address longstanding development limitations. • Built a multi-component cross-team ride state integration test framework, reducing the reliance on physical vehicle and operator testing and drastically hastening development iteration time. • Enabled ride and fleet teams to define their own modular component requirements as well as run integrated regression tests.
Cloud Infrastructure Team • Proposed and executed a full restructure of the cloud environment’s bootstrapping process, improving success rates and simplifying procedures for deploying features and fixes. • Reduced the downtime from large upgrades by a factor of three by overhauling and parallelizing the processes across various internal services. • Configured intrusion detection for customer data and internal files on Windows servers, assisting with SOC2 audit compliance. Repository Import Server • Automated the migration of terabytes of on-premises customer document repositories into the cloud. • Converted existing SQL data sanitization queries from iterative updates to broad updates, reducing their collective runtime from hours to minutes. • Enhanced features and performance based on feedback from customer support.
• Integrated Conduit, an open-source data exchange library, to communicate between physics simulation codes and other programs using a common data format. • Utilized Conduit objects as timing trees to analyze and record function performance across MPI threads. • Coordinated as a team of four and reported to a liaison and a professor on a weekly basis.
• Tutored students and graded assignments for introductory, data structure, and computability classes.
• Modeled dynamics of a photochromic molecular switch using Hartree-Fock, Density Functional Theory, and CASSCF. • Modified and tested Python code for calculating occupations of Franck-Condon states. • Guided fellow researchers through writing scripts for using supercomputing resources.
