* Researching embedded systems under the guidance of Professor Chamberlain. * Built and designed orchestration systems that control multiple embedded systems to execute complex robotics functionalities.

• Received Greatly Exceeds Expectations rating for finishing Device CLI early and completing three additional self-assigned stretch goals. • Built test framework and self-service frameworks to increase the reliability and useability of Device CLI. • Re-engineered the Device CLI service into Daemon and Client which increased the performance of cold runs by up to 35 times. • Worked alongside users to build commands according to their specific demands, and adjusted features according to user feedback. • Released Device CLI into production with Chef and Slowroll to allow for easy rollbacks in case of breakage.

• Built a service using Cloudformation that automatically deployed a drag and drop website builder (Microweber) on users’ AWS accounts. The service also provided service restoration, backup, load balancing, CDN and database customization. • Engineered infrastructures serving pre-built voice recognition models using docker and ECR. • Built internal tools that mapped customers, BD (sales), and engineers’ relationships to each other using React and Django. • Wrote Python scripts that looked up EC2 instance spot prices and checked subnet conditions of users.
